    you don't need to set width
    if you are trying to control where band output is on the finished page use the engine object to control
    cury and curx positioning.
    read the usermanual chapter on using the engine object.

    Thanks for your quick reply,yes I have found the solution by script! but I hope it can be available on Report template Design phase.
    Detail reason as below:

    Because user wants to add picture or text information object which is not binding masterdata record on Left or Right of Masterdata band,they need one feature support to set the position of band on anywhere in page.

    I will send two pics to you by mail,one is the template,another is final report.

    Do you have any other way to meet it?

    you will have to re think your design layout to accommodate all the enduser wants.
    the band(depending upon its type and prop settings) controls where it begins to output vertically
    the actuall position is goverened by the object's positions within the band.
    you may need to use several design pages and control which one is used(visible) depending upon options chosen by the user.

    that functionality already exists
    for combining fp3 files use 2 tfrxreportcomponents
    load the first fp3 file into the first report component,
    load the second fp3 file into the other report component.
    then add the previewpages from the second to the first.
    clear the second and repeat as many times as necessary.

    Thank your very much!

    I have combined multi-reports by your way.

    But I don't know how to re-number for each page.

    Looking forward to your answer!

    when you combine fp3 files thes are completed reports and you can't change the page numbering.
    otherwise
    read the programmers manual on batch reports

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
