>>Hi everybody,
>>
>>I'm having a strange problem with a report. This report is printed from a special form, which allows to either send report to printer, or to screen, or both to screen and printer or to e-mail. I haven't looked closely into this form.
>>
>>Anyway, in my report in Page Header section I have a label which then follows with a field which is created by using a variable m.Rep_Head defined in the program creating the report. The field is said to be Fixed relative to the top of band and I also use Center Justified option.
>>
>>Now, I choose Both Screen & Printer on the form, then it shows a preview (correct). I then press ESC, the Preview window closes and then a dialog opens to select a Printer. I press OK on this dialog and for some unknown reason my Rep_Head is now printed twice, the second time at the very bottom of the page header band making the columns' titles unreadable.
>>
>>I'm not sure why I see this weird behavior and how can I fix it. As I said, it shows correctly in the Preview...
>>
>>Thanks in advance.

No, there is no grid on the form. In any case I seem to fix this particular problem, but now I found a header record with no details, so I'm wondering should I exclude such records from my report...
