Kamil,

I tryed to reproduce this behaviour, but no luck. What I did was in the existing report I added a field having expression:
=strtofile(field1+field2+chr(13)+chr(10),(filename), .t.)

Then:
repo form... to FILE (filename2) ASCI

And I did not see in these two files any differences in the order.

It may help me to see what is going on if you send to me the sample of your data and supplementary files (frx/prg).

>I have a report each line of it (header, detail, footer) is a function. The function does two things: sends its output as a string to a txt file and returns the same output to the report for printing. Printing is OK. But the lines in the file appear mixed (line which was above in the report desinger appears below in the file). That obviously means that the report (.frx file) has a certain mechanism which regulates the order of the execution of the report records (within .frx). I've tryed changing physical order of records in .frx - no luck. So the question remains - how to control the sequence of execution of report records (in .frx)?
