    When do my royalty checks start arriving?

    For starters, the detail section seems unusually tall. I would typically drag it up to just below the fields. Does the table/query return records, and is there data in those fields? Offhand, what you have looks correct.

    I think I may be too new to this to answer your questions -- but I'll try. This report is drawing from information in a invoice query. The record source is qryInvoice and here is a screen shot of the query with the data in the fields:

    That looks okay. Can you post the db here?

    You'll have to walk me through that one -- how do you upload a database to a forum?

    If you click on Reply to Thread or Go Advanced you'll see a Manage Attachments button below where you type. Typically if you compact/repair then zip it should be small enough to attach.

    Okay, that took a minute to find. First I'd shrink up the detail section, which I assume is the look you want anyway, then change the Force New Page property of the section to None. I think your detail data is displaying, it's just on the next page because of that setting. See attached.

    Thank you. That worked! The detail information now shows in the print preview.

    Are you available for another question: This is the error message I get when trying to concatenate the first and last names in the qryInvoice file. Thanks again. I appreciate the help. The error message seems simply enough -- it appears as though it could be resolved be eliminating the duplicate first/last fields in the other tables. But this is my first db and I'm afraid to start deleting anything.

    The error is because you have a field named "First" in more than one of the tables/queries in the FROM clause (you'll get the same error on "Last". The solution is to disambiguate it by specifying the table/query:

    FullName: TableName.First & " " & TableName.Last
