I have a report which requires page-breaks on a change of sort field.
I am also trying to put a report header page on the same report.
It appears that the only way to get a report header page is to use
ON TABLE SUBHEAD. When I use this, it prevents the rest of the
report from page-breaking on the sort field. The PRINT statement
is in the format PRINT fieldname1 fieldname2 ...
BY sortfield NOPRINT PAGE-BREAK
This problem occurs with and without the PAGE-BREAK option on the
ON TABLE statement. The PAGE-BREAK on sortfield works fine if
I don't try to print a report header page first.
Is there a way around this? Is there any other way to print a
report header page? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

If you just need a report header page (that is one page at the
beginning of the file), you could do two table files - the first
simply types the report header page and the second produces your
report. Since Focus appends subsequent reports to the bottom of
the initial report (if you don't specify a different file), the
header and the report will all be in the same file.
If this isn't clear, give me a call at 223-5225.
