Hi, Nadia.

Try GenRepoX. It extends the report designer functionality trough special commands in the comments. It actually preprocess you report and generates a temporary one tweaking some fields. I'm not sure, but it's very probable you can do this.

It is in the files section(#000227), but I couldn't access it today, nor the EPS site. Maybe the UT file section points to Markus site (Markus Egger is the tool author). But try later today or tomorrow. GenRepoX is worth trying it.

Another approach is to use Doug Hennig's Report Class. It gives you an OOP interface to create reports. It is very easier to use, although you have to write a lot of code (mostly setting LOTS of properties). I haven't found it in the files section. It was published a couple of years ago in FoxTalk. If you can't find it and Doug agrees, I can email it to you.

Good luck.
