Has anyone had a problem like this?
Preview of a report with multiple calclulations and multiple pages, previews correctly 1st time thru but when scrolling back (with preview nav buttons)page 1 is all distorted showing multiple incidents of the same lines on the report on the page. First thought it was a video problem but the same thing happened on another machine -- kind of rules that out.
 
If the information is correct in your report, then I would try to reduce the color depth of the system and also try reducing the hardware acceleration on the display setting.
 
Thanks for the suggestion, will give that a try too.

Do you have a suggestion when the totals are NOT correct going back to page 1???
Could be I didn't supply enough info also. Environment is
Vfp6, Vpme, Ms-Sql Backend, Windows ME.

Do you mean that when on page 1 the first time the totals are not correct or the second time around? What about when you print out the report?
 
Printing directly produces the correct information.
Preview - 1st time presents the correct information.
Scroll back to page 1 and the totals are incorrect.

Hope I said that correctly in answer to your reply.
Thanks again,
Don
 
Honestly, I'm not sure. I've never encountered that. How are your totals calculated? Variable? Totals in a group band?
 
I have found this to be an issue when creating the report also - the screen becomes distorted or objects diappear!

My way round it is to minimise the screen then maximise it again (ie force a refresh). This fixes it for me!
