Hi Cyrus,

I use Report's DE in very rare situations. In most cases my calling program creates necessary cursor, which report uses.

Are you sure, you don't have Table alias anywhere in the report? It may cause weird behavior.

Are you trying to use two or more tables in the report? This may cause problems as well...

Do you have functions in the report? Does it behave oddly in command window or when called from your program?

There is nothing else on the report. Data Source is .NULL. and there is nothing in Data Grouping. I do a Preview and it is a single page report as desired. I make a second copy of this report and call it COPY.FRX. So, everything is honky dorie so far.

>Then I compares the two EMPTY reports NEW.FRX with COPY.FRX (the copy) and BROWSE the tables and find that everything is idential!. I also checked everyuthing in the FRT files and they were identical as well. But NEW.FRX still prints on 5 pages, while COPY.FRX (the copy) prints correctly on 1 page.
