I have a report that I think is pushing the limits of VFP 6...
My report is composed of:
Title Page (full page)
Page Header (empty)
Page Footer (.5 inch)
Detail Line (empty) ..... and....
14 Data Group header/footer bands

The minimum page lengths (in inches) of my Groups are:
group 1 10.0
group 2 1.0
group 3 0.6
group 4 0.6
group 5 3.5
group 6 2.25
group 7 3.0
group 8 5.0
group 9 1.75
group 10 9.75
group 11 0.7
group 12 0.7
group 13 1.0
group 14 1.0

I'm printing portrait on letter size paper on an HP 4000 TN laser printer.

With the above settings my report prints all pages as expected.

HOWEVER....
If I change the overall length of the report I get different results depending on where the change is made....
For instance:
If I leave the report alone except I change Group 2 to 6.0 inches....no problem.
If I leave the report alone except I change Group 9 to more than 4.1250 inches....problem.
If I leave the report alone except I change Group 11 to more than 1.1500 inches....problem.

What happens is the report will get to a certain place in the report (the page before the change I think) and be fine, but after that it gives nothing but an endless stream of blank pages!

I think I need some HELP!!! with this one.
I need to produce 1 PDF file contianing the result of my report. And I need my last few pages to be larger than an inch each....I'll need the last four groups to be something like 9.75, 9.75, 1.0, and 2.25 at least.

Please Help!

TIA,
Rick Liebespach
