>>I was hoping to be able to use GenrepoX to get around the fact that the VFP report writer can't support more than one child table. The GenrepoX *:DETAIL command seems just fitted to do this, but I read in the GenrepoX documentation that the detail extender can't print more than one page (no pagefeed)!

So how do you solve your own reporting needs, Markus? Do you use Crystal Reports or something else? What are your recommodations?

By the way, wouldn't it be possible to calculate in advance which detail record will be the last to fit on the current page and then use a report function to rebuild the frx dynamically for each page as it prints? Just an idea...
