So now you know what an overflow placeholder is for, it takes the data from a data region (such as a table or matrix, or any other data region that can grow) and continues it in another space designated for it. In the preview those two areas are filled (well, mostly filled on the right) with the contents of the table. And to the right of it, is a large rectangular cutout, which if you view the large image you'll see has the text "Table1 Overflow Placeholder" in it. We've defined our table, and then under it is a gray shaded area.
You'll notice a couple things right away. How easy did we make it? Well, see for yourself! Here is a screenshot of the report in the designer, and when previewed. Stuff like: invoices, tax forms, bills, prospectus reports, etc. NET reporting tool! Its purpose is to give you complete control over the final layout of your report, making it incredibly easy to create reports that resemble traditional printed forms and reports. To recap from those posts: Fixed Page Layout (FPL) is a brand new reporting layout engine that isn't available in any other.
You can read a few posts over at the older ClubFarPoint blogs where I briefly introduced the biggest new reporting feature, Fixed Page Layout (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3). I'm a Product Manager at ComponentOne working on ActiveReports (among other things) and I'll be here to blog about all sorts of things ActiveReports related.
