 | I have a problem printing reports containing memo fields. Occasionally when a row wraps across two pages the memo field text is truncated on the 2nd page. It does not happen to every row that wraps across pages, in a typical report of 13 pages it may happen twice. If a row is contained within a page truncation does not occur. I can solve the problem for any particular row where this happens by editing the data and starting the sentence where truncation occurs on a new line but this transfers the problem to a different row that now wraps across two pages. Does anyone know what might be causing this problem ?
Alternatively, if a row will not fit on a page how can I force it to start on a new page without having one row per page?
Thankyou for your assistance.
Colin

There is a known bug -- you may want to go to the bug-reports newsgroup, and all that. Also check the gold site and find the bug number, add a "Me Too" (hit counter) to it.
