2. A section has checked option to RESET PAGE NUMBER and also it's being suppressed. When it suppresses PAGE NUMBER REST do not work, I want to reset PAGE NUMBER even if its suppressed.

Answer 1

1.

Right-click on the column you want to move, select Size and Position. To the right of the X Position Adjustment field, click on the X+2 conditional formatting icon, and enter a formula like:

IF {?Name} = "BBB" THEN -2880 ELSE 0

This tool uses a measurement scale of twips in which there are 1440 twips to an inch. So if I want to conditionally move the column 2 inches to the left if the parameter value equals "BBB", then I will enter a negative 2880 (2-inches times 1440).

I assume that you have written a formula to reset the page number after each group and you have placed this formula in the group footer and then suppressed the section.

If that is the case, then remove the formula from the group footer and then right click on the group footer, and then click on section expert. In the pop up window, under the 'Common' tab, check the box next to 'Reset Page Number After'.

This will reset the page number to 1 at the end of each group. This will work even if the group footer is suppressed.
