At the end of the report you are naturally at the end of a group; ACE is simply following your instructions. What you want to do is incorporate that "skip to top of page" stuff all into the "before group" clause. I don't know what elso you need to do "after group" but take that "skip to top of page" out of there! Good luck & have fun with it. -- Jake -- ----------------Obligatory smart-$$$ remark:--------------------- | There's two kinds of people: Those who categorize people into | | two groups and those who don't.
