I'm still unsure about how to make this happen. At a high level, am I changing the content of the ColumnText cell, or am I creating a new ColumnText and writing over the top of what's already in the cell, at an absolute position?

All the examples I see draw lines and circles...nothing shows text manipulation.

If "(Continued)" needs to be in a separate row, I don't have an immediate answer. If it can be added to an existing row: Savings Account (Continued) Date | description | amount | balance 7/10 | foo | 9.99 | 100.00 7/10 | foo | 9.99 | 100.00 I would use a cell event. The cell event would have a member variable to keep track if it has already been used. If not: then the cell is added for the first time; if so: the word "(Continued)" needs to be added. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
