>>>Is it a known problem for the report writer not to be able to stretch more than one row in a multi-row detail report? I have 6 rows of 17 columns in my detail, in which row 2,4 and 6 are udfs and need to vary in length. The stretch works fine for my first instance (row 2), but if I add any other stretch properties to any other row, the report prints all crazy. Any ideas?

>Yes, the positions of all objects under row 1 are set to float. I tried using other settings as well, but none affected the stretching problem. It does seem to have something to do with the float idea, though, as the basic symptom seems to be that objects underneath the stretched row refuse to float if any other field in rows 4 or 6 stretches.

>Quick question: SHOULD this work in VFP6? I.e., stretching multiple objects in multiple rows of detail?

It works even in Fox 2.6. Can you zip up and email this report with data to me that I can test it?
