I sounds like you are having a problem with a report, not a form.
Another solution is to use Crystal Reports with either the RBase ODBC driver or Oterro. For simple reports, you can also just use Excel or Word along with the RBase ODBC driver or Oterro.

Saved it... and it worked fine. opened it to edit it... and just moved one text item 2-3 pixels (enough to make it asked to be saved) and it tells me that one of the column items is out of the margin (the error puts a columnitemname in the caption of the box) now, no matter what I can't get that to go away. Deleting every item, column and text does not do it. It has to be something other than a lost item. I was very careful to not place anything even near a margin.
