Property read-only?

[Former Member]

cr.PrintOptions.PageMargins.bottomMargin = 10

This doesn't work at all ... is the property read_only?

Or is there any other chance to change page adjustments at runtime via code?

Lots of info missing. Version of CR and .NET for starters. See the [Rules of Engagement|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/home/rulesofEngagement]

Sorry Ludek, it's VS2005 and CR2008 - still.

Maybe this is the solution?

Dim pm As New CrystalDecisions.Shared.PageMargins
        pm.bottomMargin = 10
cr.PrintOptions.ApplyPageMargins(pm)

Is there any hint to useful and somewhat extended information about the CR Object Model?

I mean, trial and error costs a lot of time ...

Not sure how to define "extended information about the CR Object Model", but there is the following:

A while back I did a fair bit od playing with this and the code as bellow worked fine:

ReportDocument myReport = new ReportDocument();
myReport.Load(....rpt");

PageMargins myMargin = new PageMargins();
myMargin = myReport.PrintOptions.PageMargins;
myMargin.topMargin = 240;
myMargin.bottomMargin = 240;
myMargin.rightMargin = 240;
myMargin.leftMargin = 240;
myReport.PrintOptions.ApplyPageMargins(myMargin);
