Remove DetailHeader Band when Detail Field Values is NULL - ireport

I'm printing the Detail Header on Every Page so i would like to hide the Detail header band when there is no data available in the detail band .
How do I implement this? Any help would be appreciated.

1) Right-click the desired band and at the right side you will see the Print When Expression
There you can enter any condition you want. Say for example:
$F{my_primary_key}!=null
Here the band will always print when a row is returned.
2) You can also consider right-clicking your report name in the report inspector (top node) --->Properties-->When No Data---> you have 04 options:
All sections, no detail
Blank page
No Data Section
No pages.

Add notes & footnotes to table

I have a report where I need to add a note/number where a record has data in a particular column. I then need to add a reference to that to the bottom of the table, much like a footnotes section you would see in a book.
I've tried adding the rownumber but it pulls in the actual rownumber and not the record count. I'm using oracle for my db.
In my report, if the record has a value for the column RETURN_NOTE (not shown), then concatenate an int tot he end of the TASK_NAME column. Then underneath the table, add the int from above with the RETURN_NOTE value.
You can see the red numbers and their description in the image below.
Thanks
The best way to go here is when you add a calculated field to your dataset where you put your footnotes into the expression. Lets assume your footnotes depend on the Fields!Task.Value and lets call this calculated field Footnotes:
'Name: Footnotes
=Switch(Fields!Task.Value = "Prepare for Coordinator", 1, Fields!Task.Value = "Ready for Closeout", 2)
Now add another column to your tablix and put the field Fields!Footnotes.Value in this column.
Then add a rectangle or another tablix somewhere in your report (put in the values which explains the footnotes). Then go to the properties of this tablix/rectangle (pane on the right) and under Other > Bookmark write in a bookmark code (for example: FootnotesExplained).
Go back to your textbox with the Fields!Footnotes.Value in it and right click on this textbox and go to Text Box Properties > Action and check the Go to bookmark option and write below your bookmark code from before FootnotesExplained.
When you click now on one of the value in the column where the footnotes are the report will jump to the tablix/rectangle where your footnotes descriptions are.

Adding a blank page to SSRS

I'm creating a report by account that will either print 2 pages duplex (front and back). But sometimes the amount of data will make it overflow to 3 pages. When that happens I need to make sure a 4th page gets generated (blank) so the next account can print on the front of page 1. How can I accomplish this in VS2010? Thanks.
The answer, like most formatting questions, is to use a Rectangle.
Insert a rectangle, place it after your first table and give it a height of 0.125in. In the Rectangle properties, check Add Page Break After.
Now the problem is with your needing to only use the rectangle's page break when it's on page 2.
Since the Page Number built-in field only works in the header or footer, you need some code for the page number. Add code to get the Page Number to the report code (Report Properties -> Code):
Public Function PageNumber() as integer
Return Me.Report.Globals!PageNumber
End Function
Then set the Rectangle's visibility to Show or Hide based on expression and the expression to:
=IIF(Code.PageNumber() = 3, TRUE, FALSE)

Print SubReport is in next page using IReport 5.5.0

I have use one sub-report in main report with use of jasper Reports. sub-report is print half of is in one page and other half in next page. but i want to print it is in single page. Please help me.
You can set SplitType to equal Prevent in the detail band properties, but that only prevents a band from splitting from page to page, forcing it to begin on the following page of your report. If the output of your sub-report is naturally longer than the page height you have set, then this will just force the sub-report to begin on the following page. I do not think this would be a desirable outcome since in that case the subreport would still populate two separate pages (actually 3 if you include the resulting blank first page).
All that said one solution would be to check off "Ignore Pagination" in your main reports properties. This will ensure that your entire report is viewed as one single page, but this causes problems when printing or PDF'ing.
You are a bit vague in your question, but its also possible that the detail band height is too high. IReport is "pixel perfect" so if the subreport element begins in the middle of the band then that is where it will start. Also if you have title, page header, or column header bands that are not being used, these will result in unwanted white space.
Hope this helps!
There is a property called "isSplitAllowed" in the band tag that should help you.

In the table property, make "KeepTogether: False" in the Behavior section.

Split page scrolling behaviour in HTML

So I have a page that is split into 2 columns. The left column there are expandable forms that are quite long to ask the user optional product preferences. On the right side of the page there is a much shorter, 'contact details' form.
The contact details form is mandatory while all the left product preferences forms are optional. The behaviour idea is that as the user scrolls down to complete the left column optional forms, the page will only scroll the left column - the contact details forms displayed in the right column stay in place beginning. I'm having trouble implementing this and I haven't found a solution yet or any examples of pages with this split column behaviour online.
Any advice / suggestions?
Thanks!
Depending on how involved your layout is, you can use css fixed positioning so that as the page scrolls down, your right column stays in the same place.
Sample.
You can put the contents of the longer (left) column in a container div, and make that div independently scrollable using the overflow attribute.
Here's a sample.
