A bit of googling tels us the folowing: <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/project/notable2.1.php#jump_5'>http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/project/notable2.1.php#jump_5</a> 
 
You can set the master page on items.

Applying master page property to report elements/ grid sections does cater my requirement.

I have just one table report items and that runs over multiple pages.

I actually wanted 1st Master Page to be displayed on first page and 2nd Master page for rest of the pages.

Please advise.

This is what you could do on a page break event. 
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>this.getStyle().masterPage = "Simple Master Page 2"</pre>
 
But I dont thinkit will work as you want. As a bit of googeling finds you this:

All pointing to that BIRT never had that in mind.

Interesting. 
 
Im not sure what the display function does. But it looks like similar behavior the visabilety. But does it realy work like it? 
 
It seems your margins are the couse of it tho. (altough Im not **** with inches we work in mm mostly.)

Muthul

Yeah it does behave like visibility and show up extra spaces.

Please suggest if there are any other approaches.

I think i found it. your only hiding the grid INSIDE a grid so the space is left of the GRID that is empty.
