I need to produce statements with a "long" header for page one of the statement (including name, address, and statement total) and then a "short" header for page two and following (name only). This needs to work in PDF or print rendering, not just in the browser environment.The only way I have found to do this is to put part of the info (the name only) in the Page Header and the rest of the information (address, statement total) in a Group Header. Of course, because I can't put data directly in the Page Header region, I have to use a workaround with custom code to make it work. And it does work about 90% of the time. But sometimes the last page of one statement has the name of the NEXT statement recipient in the Page Header. I can't put my finger on exactly what triggers this bug (for lack of a better word), but it seems to be related to the attempt of the rendering agent to keep the final subsection all on one page. I posted earlier about the bug per se, but what I really need is a workable solution to getting the format correct on these statements, and if there is a completely different way to do it, I'm eager to hear about it. I've been trying various approaches for over a year, and this "header bug" keeps undermining everything I've tried.
