Hi Ronald,

One more thing to check - are you sure you're not printing from the form with a grid with a focus on the grid? Though symptoms would be different.

What is your exact command (and few preceding lines) to call this report?

UPDATE. I see now you solved the problem with Christof's help. Glad to hear that.

It is so strange that such a simple thing bother me so much that I need to find out whats happening. Im still battling with this dilemma and perhaps if I could give you some more symptoms on what I call "my nightmare", you (and other generous persons like you) might be able to help (please) suggest a solution or a cause. Likewise, if I find out what's going on, on my own, I would want to share its resolution to you.
