You could do it in one report module using AFTER GROUP OF CustomerKey sections but you may find separate reports easier to manage. You will not have to deal with conditionals in the end-of-page handling logic. Initialize both reports then just send each row into the two report modules in turn. The forced page breaks in each report will force buffer flushing of the reports so they stay in sequence. Art S. Kagel
