detail band printing 2nd set of records incorrectly

edited August 2001 in General
I am using RB6.01 with TxtraDev1.8. I have a detail-band with just a
ppDBText box on it. In one particular case, the data has a similar
structure to what I have given below. For ParentRecord1 the detail-band
prints all four lines correctly. For ParentRecord2 the detail-band does not
print line 1 & 2 and it repeats lines 3 & 4 giving the results below.
Anybody know why this is?

Strucure of Data
----------------
ParentRecord1:
DetailRecord1 - 'error message for part 1'
DetailRecord2 - 'instructions on how to handle error'
DetailRecord3 - 'and instruction on who to contact'
DetailRecord4 - 'and why it is an error'

ParentRecord2:
DetailRecord1 - 'error message for part 2'
DetailRecord2 - 'instructions on how to handle error'
DetailRecord3 - 'and instruction on who to contact'
DetailRecord4 - 'and why it is an error'


Result in Report at design-time and in pdf
------------------------------------------
Label1 error message for part 1
instructions on how to handle error
and instruction on who to contact
and why it is an error
Label2 and instruction on who to contact
and why it is an error
and instruction on who to contact
and why it is an error

    What output device is this on? Is it only in the preview or does it print
    the same way as well? We need to be able to reproduce this in order to fix
    the problem. Are you using a master detail relationship? What happens if
    you hook the master and detail datasources up to a couple of DBGrids on the
    form? Do the records display correctly?
