Report Writer

[gonzilla]

Hello everyone,

So is anybody good with Report Writer? I understand it pretty well, but I have a few questions.

We are trying to print one heading, and then the detail lines and not repeat the heading on any other page. The only way to get the detail lines to start after the RH is to say FIRST DETAIL IS 8 - but that causes the second and subsequent pages to include a blank space where the report heading would be and then start the detail lines at 8. I tried a variation where FIRAST DETAIL IS 1 - and got the RH to print on a seperate page and then each page started at line 1, but that's not what I want. Any ideas? I can show you code if you need it.

Also, how would I underline the detail column headings? They are part of the RH and there is no documentation of WITH UNDERLINE in our book and I tried it without success.

Thanks again for your help.

-Tyler
