Report having blank pages every other page

[ryan.fitzpatrick3]

I have a report which on every other page it is blank, anyone have a
clue what could cause this? In the report design I don't have
unnecessary space in details or header or footers.

The usual cause of blank pages in a report is that the combined width
of the report plus the width of the left and right margins is greater
than the width of the paper.
Either make the width of the report shorter or decrease the width of
the left and right margins, or both.

If you can't drag the right edge of the report towards the left you
probably have a control (usually a line) extending to the current
right position. It can be just at the extreme top or bottom of a
section which means it is going to be hard to see in Design View.
Use the Object drop-down control to highlight each line in turn until
you find the culprit. Reposition it or make it shorter, then drag the
right edge to the wanted size.

Another possible cause is the length of the report is too long. Make
the Top and Bottom margins smaller and make the length of the report
shorter.

do you have any lines in the report? such as line that would separate
the headings, if such a line is too wide it will cause blank pages.
Also check your page width vs report width properties.
If you have a green corner notification on the left side of the report in
the design view, there is an option to delete extra white space, try that,
edit the margins- make them smaller.

That was it thanks. Width was (-) this much over.
