Hola Raul,

I do not know if this is documented, but I can understand why it happens.

However, even for the most complex reports I try fo finish with a single cursor that has all the necesary information. In the case of a one to many relationship I don't care having the header replicated x number of times. This lets me use the report variables at will.
