Page header does not print with long memo field

[taterday]

Using CR 9.0. This is a VFP 7.0 memo field. The page header prints on every page with exception of the condition of memo field that has too much data to print on one page or sometimes two pages.

Thank you for your help.

Does the memo field happen to be in a subreport?

-LB

Yes, and it on a group break.

Subreports don't have page headers, but you can create a fake one. In the subreport, create a formula {@all}:

whilereadingrecords;
""

Insert a group on this formula and check "repeat group header on each page." Make this group your Group #1. Remove the groupname and place your page header fields into this new fake page header.

-LB

LBass,
I am sorry. I sure you are telling me exactly how to do this. It is my lack of knowledge of CR that causes me not to understand. I have not created anything fake in CR.

what is this?
{@all}:

whilereadingrecords; (I have used this with formulas)

"" ( is where I put the link names group on names?

My grouping is on company and I link to a table with one record for each company to create a grouping.

No, create a formula that looks exactly like this:

whilereadingrecords;
""

Then follow the earlier steps.

-LB

Thank you for you help.

what is this? {@all}:

I created a formula, put it in the group header 1, added some fields for testing. "repeat group header on each page" was not an option on the formatting the group. I use CR 9.0. Where is that?

I want the second page header in the group to print. Ideally the page would be different from the first page within the group. Is that possibly?

Thanks,

taterday

I found a sample report with the fake group header in it. Thank you for steering me in the right direction.
