Lucian, thanks for looking at this issue. Answers to your questions: >> You have printWhenGroupChanges="Coverage" set for your text field. Is this group changing when "NONE" gets repeated? No, this group does not change >> Could you try removing this and see whether the text still gets repeated? I tried this, no effect. >>Also, on which band is the text field placed? Is it on the detail band? Yes, the detail band. In this new forum, I can now attach the entire file. Thanks for your help, and sorry for the duplicate posts, Dave Cherkassky
