Missing record top of second page!

edited April 2003 in General
This has become very frustrating! I have a report
that prints well to paper, but it CONSISTENTLY
skips the record to print at the top of following pages.
I have done endless variations at chabging properties.
I thought it had something to do with the stretching memo,
so I eliminated that, etc. etc.

I have events for BDEPipeLineFirst and BDEPipeLineNext, since
some basic data comes from a query, while the rest of it has to be
looked up for the detail band. There are 3 lines of data on each
detail band plus some grid drawn lines. Should be pretty simpo\le,
but after two days of changing report and BDEPipeLine properties, I
am still at square one. ANY IDEAS?

    I was not clear - this problem occurs just in
    preview mode - client needs to work from the screen at times.
    There are no skipped records when print to paper.

    Scott,

    You should never have to call the First and Next procedures for the pipeline
    or use any events to traverse the data yourself. The report engine was not
    designed to handle this case. Try using a JITPipeline instead. An example
    of creating a JITPipeline over a query can be downloaded from the link
    below.
