Suppressing Group Headers on no further data

edited April 2003 in General
I've looked for a similar subject but can't immediately find one. I have a
report with several groups nested. It works fine and as expected except for
one annoying feature.

If the group is still active and the page "runs out" it repeats the group
header on the next page and continues the detail data in that group.

However if the page *and* the detail data "runs out" at the foot of the page
the header is still repeated on the next page although there is no detail
data to print. It then goes on to the next group header etc.

Is there any way to stop this or do I have to resort to checking for
conditions in an event for each and every group in the report?

cheers - David

    David,

    When creating the group, try setting the Group.HeaderForOrphanedFooter
    property to False. If this does not give you the results you need, you may
    have to check each page for this condition. Please send an example to
    support@digital-metaphors.com and we'll configure the report to work how you
    want it to.

    Nico - many thanks for the hint - I'll give it a whirl later on this evening
    when I've got a moment or two spare. I'll try both ways. If no luck I'll
    cobble an example together. Thanks again for your help.

    cheers - David
