Fixed text at bottom of the page

Hi,
I have a report with the following structure

1 Page header (with some fields from a userdataset)

2 Group header (with fields from dataset)

3 Masterdata (some more fields from the dataset)

4 Group footer (with one field from the dataset referred to in 1, 2 and a few fields from the userdataset)

1,2,3 works fine.
The problem is that the group footer has to be in a fixed position (It should match a pre printed form). So far I have not found an obvious way to do this.

Any suggestions would be appreciated
Best
Jon

    write code in the obp of the footer to set the engine cury pos.

    if engine.cury < value then engine.cury := value.

    Hi.

    You can set the position by code in the OnBeforePrint of your groupfooter:

    Engine.CurY := (24.0 * fr1cm)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
