I viewed them both yesterday and had no problems. Although, with the
screencast in the zip file, the last 30 seconds or so the video turned to
all red.... I haven't tried viewing the west coast download, but all of the
screencast on that page were working as of yesterday....

No problem.

So either make the detail band be the height of the page, or make a
group on the pk of the table with StartOnNewPage=True.

If I have time today (50/50 chance), I'll see if I can whip up a quick
example report.

Weird. Can other people please try viewing these screencasts and let us
know if they have trouble too? Maybe we should post our screencasts to
Google video or YouTube instead...
