I have read your email several times and don't find a problem. You said you need to have a blank line after every 5 names and your output shows it is doing it. So forgive me for asking, where is the problem?

I want to have a blank line after each group of 5 names. I converted the report to v6.5 for Windows where the coding worked just as in v7.8 for DOS. When I upgrade the report to version 9 it dos not print correctly. I following two variables are defined. 1: INTEGER : D : vCount = (IFNULL(.vCount,1,(.vCount + 1))) 2: INTEGER : D : vBreak = (IFEQ(.vCount,6,1,0)) Break points are defined as follows: Page [No ] Break1 vBreak [Yes] Break2 MbrNumberUnsigned [No ] Break3 MbrNumber [No ] Break4 [None] [No ] At Break1 the following is being reset: RESET 2 vCount The output is as follows: Beta Xi Chapter Theta Xi Fraternity Living Members in Numeric Order Number Full Name ÄÄÄÄÄÄ ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ 1 Wells, Alan Joseph 2 Gutierrez, Salvador Edward, Jr. 3 Farmer, Richard Bartholomew, III 5 Schulte, Douglas Francis 6 Caillouet, Jean Francis 7 Hardin, Roy Oswald, III 8 Hebert, Hubert Knute 9 Lee, Davis 10 Gutierrez, Manfredo 12 Nelson, Leonard Joseph, Jr. 13 Garzona, Richard Alfonso, Jr. 14 Le Blanc, Drouet Edmond How do I code this in version 9?
