Suppress Repeated Values on the last page

edited April 2009 in General
Using Delphi 7 and Report Builder 11.04 Enterprise.

I have found a problem with the Suppress Repeated Values option on a text
box. These are the steps to reproduce the issue.

1. Create a report that has enough data so that when previewed it generates
at least 3 pages.
2. Put a TppDBText component in the detail band and link it to a data field
that will have a value for every record.
3. Adjust the layout of the report so that the last page of the report only
contains 1 record.
4. Set the Suppress Repeated Values option on the TppDBText

Once this is done, if you preview the report and click the Last Page button
then the value in the DBText is not shown. If you click back a page and then
forward again it shows correctly and if when you intially preview you Next
Page through the report rather than clicking Last Page it works correctly as
well.

This only happens when the report is set to 1 pass.

    Hi Paul,

    In my testing, I was unable to recreate the issue following your steps
    below. Please send a small example using the DBDEMOS database that I can run
    on my machine to support@digital-metaphors.com in .zip format and I'll take
    a look at it for you.
