Thought of that, but the columns would need to be adjusted for length. I've always disliked having controls on a report or screen all on top of one another. I wonder though... Could there be different groupings for each scenario? Remove the line if blank or something like that?

>>We have this code in a class-level Print button. The report is setup for two columns as that is what the alias normally has. I would like to make the report form dynamic where it can handle 1 to 5 columns, depending on what's in the alias. Development time is a concern, and one developer has suggested just using different reports for each scenario. That goes against my sense of oneness with the world, so is there a non time consuming way to have one report form handle this? The data is all very similar, lookups, codes, descriptions, that sort of thing. Using VFP9.
