I have searched the FAQ and messages on this forum because I assumed this was an easy thing to accomplish, but maybe not?

I have a simple report with 1 group. The data for this group can span multiple pages, so I checked "Reprint group header on each page".

I want the words "continued..." to appear along with the group header data, but only on pages where this particular group header data has already printed.

For example, if I have a group setup on last name, and there's 14 pages of "Johnson", on the 2nd through 14th pages, I want the words "Johnson (Continued...)" instead of just "Johnson".

Thanks for any help!

Jeff,
You just need to save off the current "name" in the on exit code of the group footer, and then in the group header, use a 'print when' when the current name is the same to print the "(Continued)". You may have to get trickier if you want to print the "(Continued)" up next to the name.
