I just for fun tried this 1. Created a test report based on my Customer Table 2. put my columns (CustID, CustName) in both the Page Header and Page Footer parts of the report 3. Created a breakpoint based on CustID
I now get 2 copies of the same data on the same page. Maybe something like that will work for you. I don't really see any reason you could use the page header and page footer in this way and just put what you need in both spots.
