[Gambas-user] How to get report page to repeat multiple times

[Struct Engr]

Fabien,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I believe I have tried what you suggested but I
am not getting it to work.  I put the middle section of the report in a
ReportPanel for it to be repeated on multiple pages.  I set expand to true
for this ReportPanel and also the datacount = 2.  See the attached image
"reportdesign.png" of the report in the report designer.  I set the border
of the ReportPanel to the color violet so that it can be easily
identified.
We I display the report in print preview, everything inside the middle
ReportPanel disappears and the total numbers of pages scrolls out of
control.  See attached image "preview.png" for the view of the report in
print preview.
Any help or suggestions you can offer to correct the missing
containers/data in the ReportPanel would be appreciated.  I have attached
the OutputReport.report file in case it will help in discovering the
problem.  If more information is needed please ask.

Thanks,
Greg
