Question

When the last entry in a page is too long, It will show in next page, when it show all the table line is missing.

How do I move the last record (no.26) to the next page, or how I can show the line?

Answer 1

You can put the staticText element without text behind the textField element. You should set stretchType property with RelativeToTallestObject value and isPrintWhenDetailOverflows property with true value.

The sample:

<detail>
    <band height="20" splitType="Stretch">
        <staticText>
            <reportElement stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject" x="0" y="0" width="100" height="20" isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="true"/>
            <box>
                <leftPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
                <bottomPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
                <rightPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
            </box>
            <textElement/>
            <text><![CDATA[]]></text>
        </staticText>
        <textField>
            <reportElement stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject" x="0" y="0" width="100" height="20"/>
            <box>
                <leftPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
                <bottomPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
                <rightPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
            </box>
            <textElement/>
            <textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{id}]]></textFieldExpression>
        </textField>

As result you will get the vertical border at the second page.

The result before adding the second staticText was (the vertical border at the second page is absent):
