Great, that worked perfectly. Luckily I am printing duplex.
I'll be sure to check out your new book.

>>Hi All,

>>I have a report that requires me to issue an extra (in addition to "Start each group on a new page") form feed if it is an odd page number [Mod(_PageNo,2)#0]. I've tried putting a field Chr(12) in the group footer but is just prints out a square. Any suggestions?

>- Check the "Stretch with overflow" checkbox and the "Remove line if blank" checkbox on this object

>The number "40" is just a number I used for an example and you may have to adjust yours. It represents how many lines lines would fit on the page. This way .. if only 1 detail band prints .. the 40 CHR(13)s would cause the Group Footer to not fit .. therefore, it does a page feed and prints the "blank lines" on the next page.

>One catch with this trick is that the last group will also print a blank page. If you aren't printing doublesided, this is probably not what you want. To avoid the extra blank page, you can use the following code to print the report:

>PRIVATE pnLastRec
>USE MyData
>GOTO BOTTOM
>pnLastRec = RECNO()
>
>GOTO TOP
>REPORT FORM MyReport TO PRINTER PROMPT PREVIEW
>

>
>Now, change the expression for the new object to the following: IIF(MOD(_PAGENO, 2) = 0 OR RECNO() = pnLastRec, '', REPLICATE(13), 40))
