It works poorly at best, and it just stopped for a while. No bits missing, as far as I could see, bearing in mind that I run sid, but no dice. I fired up my wife's computer and used Access to get the job done immediately, but I've been trying to leave Access for ten years or more, so I had a go with fpdf with php, and can now produce my most important reports (i.e. invoices) if Base goes walkabout again. -- Joe
