>>>>I need to print report, which consist of 3 independent reports (I process 3 different program), but my boss want to combine in 1 report ( I wish I could have 3 detail bands). Any ideas, how to do this in VFP 5.0a.I tried to send to ASCII file and then use automation with MS Word, but because I am using proport. fonts, ASCII files look terrible.
