  You don't understand the row count property of a data band.
  When a data band us connectted to a datasource the datasource controls the number of times the row repeats, row count is used when the band has no datasource.
  What you do is add an orphaned childband containing empty memos with frames turned on if desired.
  and call showband(bandname) for example froma detail footer obp event
  if engine.freespace -footerband.height > childband1.height +1 then
  showband('childband1');

  Hi gordk,
  Thank you for your reply.
  I test this, but it print ChildBand only 1 time. I want to print it (20-Recordcount) times.

  so add some variables to the event retrieve the freespace divide it by the child height and call show band in a loop
  or try using a while do block instead of the if then block in the example.
  You have the general idea, it is up to you to write code for your specific situation.
