Reports6i Text o/p file - Headings as Columns.

[skuthe]

Hi,
I am printing a simple report (heading and one repeating frame) into a text file and I get the headings as columns of the reports along with the regular columns.
Does anybody have any idea?

e.g. I expect the report to be
Name Phone State
Joe 123-456-9876 OH
Tom 134-765-9870 FL
Rob 456-876-9876 CA

I get the following...

Name Phone State Joe 123-456-9876 OH
Name Phone State Tom 134-765-9870 FL
Name Phone State Rob 456-876-9876 CA

Pl. help.

Thanking you in Advance.
Skuthe.

I am sure the columns are repeating becoz the columns are within a repeating frame in the report.

Create a non repeating frame outside the repeating frame and drop the headings in there.It would solve the issue.
