SSRS Report Builder empty header row - reporting-services

I'm creating a report with a basic table:
This table will print a Direct Transfer:
Fields are populated by simple drag & drop from the left pannel (dataset).
When printing the report, I can see a blank row in the header:
How can I remove that empty row? I didn't apply any spacing or anything to add a blank row...
EDIT:
The grouping part is by default, I didn't edit anything:

Based on #Alan Schofield comment I've checked if the dataset came with an empty row by painting the table rows in yellow and table header in blue.
Confirmed that there was an empty row in the dataset.
Then as a simple (not clean) solution I've added a conditional visibility to the table rows:
=IIF(Fields!ItemNo_TransShptLine.Value = "", True, False)
In my case, all rows will have an "Item No.", so if there's a row without it won't print:

SSRS hiding a row group if there are no detail rows

Can someone please help me write a custom code that will check if the details of the row group = nothing? I'd like to use this as a show/hide expression such that table 0 will not display if there are no records within the group.
I can't seem to use aggregations for the row group details at the row group level.
Edit:
example 1 with a detail row
example 2 with without a detail row but the group header still displays. I'd like to hide this group completely:
OK, so it looks like you want to hide a table, not just a group within a table.
If this is not correct , please post your full report design.
You should be able to just count the rows in the dataset that the table is bound to.
So if your table is bound to `DataSet`` the 'Hidden' property would just be
=COUNTROWS("DataSet1") = 0
"DataSet1" is the name of the dataset, it is case sensitive and must be enclosed in double quotes.
The table will be hidden but the space it consumes will not be used, in other words, you will have a blank space where the table should be.
Alternatively, you can set the NoRowsMessage property to simple text message or an expression which will be displayed instead of just hiding the table.
I ended up using an IIF(IsNothing(Fields!MyField.Value), Parameters!ShowMissingGroup.Value,False) for the row group expression visibility then using a parameter to hide/show it.

How to generate numbers for showing sequence in SSRS also it should get rearrenge when any field inbetween is missing

I am facing problem in SSRS report for showing sequense numbers as given in image.
when I searched for this issue I got solution as -- RowNumber("DataSetName")
but problem with this is, it generate numbers like 1,2,3..., but I want these numbers in following forms- 1.1, 1.2 or 1.1.1, 1.2.1.
And another problem for me is above function will work if I am having multiple rows in dataset and that dataset is bind with table to show its data, but In my case I am getting all data in single row and out of that I am showing values in textbox using expressions and if that value is empty I am hiding that textbox.
so I am not getting any solution to show sequence number in textbox along with text and how I can rearrenge that numbers if my inbetween textbox is hidden because of no data.
Please provide me solution for above probem.
Image for reference -
Example of data is :
From above table values from "Subheading1" And "Subheading2" will show inside "Heading first" and "Subheading3" And "Subheading4" will show inside "Heading second".
You can concatenate row numbers as strings as follows:
=RowNumber("HEADING") & "." & RowNumber("SUBHEADING")
To ensure numbers are consecutive remove the relevant rows in the source dataset instead of hiding them in the tablix.

SSRS - Textbox Linebreak (or) Linking Table w/ Textbox

My SSRS report contains 4 tables, all of which have line breaks at the bottom.
I'm trying to find a way to tie my text boxes (titles for each table) to only show up on the first page of the start of each table. I'm honestly at a loss for this particular issue.
--Unrelated --
Originally I had a parameter with a visibility expression and a toggle option to switch between each table, but due to a recent change request the entire report needs to be on one screen.
(=IIF(Parameters!SelectAScreen.Value = "InvoiceDetails",false,true))
I think if you add an extra row above your data (outside the group) and set the RepeatOnNewPage to False, it should work the way you want it too.
Some version of #StevenWhite's comment above is the only way I know to do this. One way to do it is to do a union with a dummy key to force the title row to the top of each table:
select 1 as dummyKey,
'Title text for table1'
union all
select 2 as dummyKey,
<columns> from <table1>
order by dummyKey, <other sort columns>
and repeat for each table's dataset.
If necessary you can also do conditional formatting to make the title row stand out and look like a title.

Add blank row after page-break in SSRS

I want to add blank rows after every single page-break that the table is having, can it be done?
I am not sure it can be achievable or not. If yes, it is , please share some insight.
Just add a blank row under your header, and set the header to appear on every page.
Right click the Tablix -> Tablix Properties -> Under the "General" tab, make sure "Repeat Header rows on each page" is selected.
You can add an empty row at the end of last record, but there is no straight forward way of doing it at the end of each page.
For inserting an empty row at the end of all the records, simply add new row by clicking 'Outside group - Below' under 'insert row' option in table.
One thing which can help in your case is, try inserting new row by clicking 'Inside group - below' option and hide/show it on the basis of some expression. You can show that blank row based on page size, eg
NumberOfRecords mod PageSize = 0;
You need to insert this type of expression by navigating to
'Row Visibility' -> 'show or hide based on an expression'
Let me know if it helps.

SSRS 2008: How to repeat on new page one row of table header

I have table with 3 rows of header, and I needed repeat on new page only second row, first and third is not needed in the pages, excepts first page.
If I set the properies "RepeatOnNewPage" in the second row only, SSRS show the error: "The TablixMember must have the same value set for the RepeatOnNewPage property as those following or preceding the dynamic TablixMember"
If I set this property in the all (3) rows of header - all ok, but I need only one :)
How to repeat only second row on new page?
I am not sure why, but this seemed to work for me.
For your 3 header rows advanced properties,
(Static) KeepTogether= false, KeepWithGroup=None, RepeatOnNewPage= TRUE
(Static the one you want) KeepTogether= True, KeepWithGroup=After, RepeatOnNewPage= TRUE
(Static) KeepTogether= false, KeepWithGroup=None, RepeatOnNewPage= TRUE
When i tried this with the top and bottom rows repeat on new page False it gave me the error you described. I changed these to true just to try. I expected them to Repeat on new page but they didnt. My first page had all 3 and the rest just had the middle.
Hope this works for you!
Go at Column Groups
Click on the black arrow at the last
Select advanced mode.
Go at "Row Group"..
In row group you will get LOTS of "static", out of which just select TOP MOST
Go to properties
A. For VS: press F4
B. For report builder... View->Properties
In that select for row headers
a. Fixed Data: True
b. Keepwithgroup: After
c. Repeatonpage: True...
And for main headers
a. Fixed Data: True
b. Keepwithgroup: Before
c. Repeatonpage: True
Set property RepeatOnNewPage = True for all rows of table. Select static row from Row Groups window.
You must have to set RepeatOnNewPage property for all static rows.
If any static row is not set RepeatOnNewPage property than it dosen't work and give error.
So just to help clarify the answer based on success from working on my table. When I did the above action on the top-most static row, I got an error message. My table has three headers that are grouped and all need to be included in the repeatOnNewPage function. In order to successfully run my report, needed to repeat the step for all the static row headers.
Static (for each row): FixedData = True, Keepwithgroup = After, and RepeatOnNewPage = True
I also went into Tablix properties and checked both boxes under Row Headers for Repeat header rows on each page & Keep header visible while scrolling.
It was a very happy moment when i did not receive an error message after completing this scenario. good luck.
