  Sorry to even ask this, but I've been sorting through the interwebs and cannot find anything that works.

  I have a report that uses 2 datasets. Tablix1 is a collection of subreports linked to ds1.

  Tablix2 contains a single subreport and is linked to ds2. It is set to be hidden if RowNumber of ds2 is 0.

  I have footers turned on, and have verified my margins are good.

  Even if I set tablix2 to hidden, I am getting a blank page with a footer. If I delete tablix2, I don't get a blank page.

  I have tried removing tablix2 and replacing it with a rectangle. Even hidden, it appears to use whitespace on a second page. (ConsumeWhitespace is set to true).

  What could be my issue here. It's driving me crazy.

  Thanks

  I wouldn't usually answer without checking, but I don't have time right now, sorry...

  That said, you could try placing a very small object (maybe a textbox with white font) below the 2nd tablix - theory being that consume whitespace only consumes space it thinks will matter and placing something below the hidden tablix should make that happen.

  as I say, untested and could be wrong.
