>May be you're right. Now I'm having problems with this stupid report again. It works perfectly in Preview window, but it doesn't go properly into ASCII file. It inserts blank records whatever it wants. I'm experimenting with different _asciirows and _asciicols combinations, but haven't luck so far. It would be a pity, if I have to repeat all over again in FPD because of this problem. I'll try Generic/Text printer, may be this would help...

Nadya, have you tried my suggestion of maing sure you have no extra space between the fields on your report and the bottom of the detail band? Also make sure you have all the fields in the band at the very top of the band or at least all on the same vertical coordinate.
