Report Preview Duplicates First Line After Turning Pages

I have a report that works fine if printed directly from the program. It works fine if you print it from a preview window too. But if a user first pages forward and then back to the first page in the preview of the report, the first record now appears twice. The report also prints exactly as the screen shows it.

I have reindexed and packed the database but this did not help. Has anyone come across this behavior before? Thanks.
The 2nd mouse gets the cheese.
 
have had bizarre behaviour before with reports, take a look at default printer on system, that does seem to have an effect on how a report preview looks and acts,
 
Have you haked the report definitions tags. VFP has 'a sor of bug' in marking the reports with default printers and consequent problems. This has been quite often discussed. If you need the hacking routine, please let me know. My routine will hack all the reports in a particular directory and remove the tags - so that all reports can be sent to any chosen printer. BEWARE NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEES FROM ME !!! :)
