I have a Compound PDF Report with 14 different Reports, 1 page each. The reports have Grid Lines and Borders. A few weeks ago...the report suddently started overlaying each other in some places. The gridlines would appear in the middle of the next report. I did some research and SET PRINTPLUS=ON...and that seemed to fix the problem. This week it started doing it again. Any other ideas?

No each report is less than a page long.

I opened a case and IBI says there is a 'Known Problem' with PDF Compound Reports and NOBREAK. Take NOBREAK off. Well isn't that the point of a Compound report? I asked since this is a 'Known Problem' has it been addressed in 7.6(we are upgrading next month). They are researching.

Reminds me of the old saying "Doctor, what's the matter? It hurts when I do this," and the doctor says "Well, don't do that." Good advice except when it comes to eating, breathing, sleeping, walking, etc., etc. Sometimes you can't just "not" do something.
I think we ran into this issue as well and just removed the borders. A few of them we put back in as graphic lines. Just decided that although the borders were visually pleasing, most weren't "must haves."


Regards,

Darin
