Hi all,

I am a experienced Reports programmer, but I found a problem that I can not see any solution. Hope I am missing the point!

I have a very simple report to do:

  • TITLE === page 1

Dept: A

Item	$	Running Total
ABC	10	10
DEF	5	15

Dept: B
Item	$	Running Total
GDD	8	8
SDE	12	20

But imagine that the page ends at this point, and I have to continue dept B on the next page; it must print the running total till now from the prior page and then continue the running total. The report must format like the following:

  • TITLE === page 2

Dept: B

Item	$	Running Total
TRANSPORT	20 <=== the running total of 
			the last line of the prior page
ZZ1	5	25 <=== the running total goes on...
ZZ2	5	30

If the dept do not breaks into pages, of course it should not appear any transportation. Any ideas? Thank you.
