I am generating a report using the report writer. How can I stop a blank line from printing? For example if I have allocated space for 5 Comment fields(80 char a piece) to print, one on each line. For a particular record only the first 2 Comments field have data in them, how can I prevent the report from producing 3 blanks lines of data after the first 2 are printed?

    For each field on the report, you can define a before-print procedure, this would allow you to find out how many "comments" were made and change the report output.
