Repeat a group header when split over X pages?

jdredd

Got myself into a pickle here. Latest VCL 5 build and Tokyo.

I have two group headers. First group by a DATE, then a group under that by NAME.

For most part report runs right, but only complaint is when data prints to 2nd page if long enough
the header doesn't repeat.

ReprintOnNewPage = TRUE

Polomint

In the Report definition, what are the property values for
- KeepChild
- KeepFooter
- KeepHeader
- KeepTogether

on the GroupHeader(s) and MasterData bands?

I must admit I struggle with this and have had reports with orphaned (or do I mean widowed) subheadings when there is more than one Group.

Often need to resort to checking code in the Header's BeforePrint event like

  if PrintBand then
    with Report.Engine do begin
      if FreeSpace <= GroupHeader.Height + DetailBand.Height then
        NewPage;
    end;

Cheers, Paul

at this moment all set to TRUE .... i tried different combos of flipping things on and off, trying to get something to trigger and in the end probably making myself more head aches
