OK. Here's my conundrum of the day.
I've got an invoice report. There are multiple group bands and multiple
potential multi-line objects, and periodically I get just the right combination
of text that I appear to get a 2 page report that should fit on one page. In
the process of trying to figure out why this is happening, I've tried every
trick I can think of including Cathy Putney's stretching of bands with dummy
objects at the bottom of the bands, etc. No joy. I keep getting 2 pages. Then I
dropped in the _pageno object in the header and my 2 pages are both appearing
as page number 1... This has to be a clue but I figure it is time to call on
the wisdom of the ProFox crowd as this one is driving me nuts.
For problems like this I sometimes get my report program to write out my
final cursor contents to disk. When you find one to stretches to 2
pages you can open this table in fox, then open your report and do a
preview and see if it goes to 2 pages. For invoices you could just
write it out using the invoice number E.g. 123456.dbf possibly to a new
subfolder. You can then clean them up easily.
