Thanks for your reply. I have solved this by creating a field with the bandno. and storing all the info in one table. Using the 'print when band=1' only the fields for that band are printed. Allthough the layout is a mess (because several fields are on top of eachother), I get my output, and that's what counts. I have hoped that there was a better way...
Nice weekend!

>You can't do something like that with FoxPro's Report Designer. Even if you modify the frx file according to my tip "Hidding unwanted bands..." from Tips&Tricks, you can't do it. You can create multiple Detail bands, but you can not set a dbf to be scrolled for each one. I.e. the report will scan just one dbf.

>What you can do: you can create a cursor with memo fields. For each band, you must build a memo field (build it by appending char strings exactly in the way you want them in the report). Print the report from this cursor. Although, you can not set different styles for different fields...
