Ed,

Is this similiar to what you were proposing in an earlier thread (specifically message #83331)? In my situation, where I want three pages per record, I would create a cursor which contained 3x the number of records originally created by my query. The way I would differentiate between the three identical records would be through a new field called maybe "GroupOrder" which would have possible values of 1, 2, or 3. I would then use this as basis for grouping within the report.

The only problem is that some of my queries against my data could return hundreds of records. Multiply that by three and I'm not sure what kinds of problems this could introduce.

This is not meant as a slam against you or anyone else on this forum, but I can't believe that this is so difficult to solve!

Regards,

Marc Mandel
