John,

I have to ask ... Why are you moving it to the Report Writer? Are you having problems with the current @SAY method? Unfortunately, the VFP Report Writer does not lend itself to variable length "pages". IOW, don't try to fit a square peg in a round hole.

>We are trying to start moving our receipts for our Point of Sale system from @ Say statements to reports for image purposes. I keep having a problem with the length of the receipt. The header prints fine, the detail prints fine, but the footer prints at the end of the receipt, which is about 6 feet long. I've tried to change paper selection on page setup, but nothing seems to be working. If someone else has been through this, any help would be appreciated.
