Hello, please see the attached document, I have followed Stefan Camerons Tutorial on displaying all records from an odbc data connection. http://forms.stefcameron.com/2006/10/12/displaying-all-records-from-an-odbc-data-connection/

But I have a problem, Basically what I need to do is have 4 rows on my PDF document that are permanent and then if I have more then 4 rows in my ODBC table to output further instances of rows.

But as you can see here: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dcj7tdvs_6hpdrkqds

I have 4 empty rows followed by all my rows from the table. This does not make sense to me, I have set repeat subform for each data item and set the minmum count to 4.

What has gone wrong here?

LiveCycle Designer, Windows

Sorry but I can't tell anything from what you have posted. The link just goes to screen shots, nothing that I need to see to tell what is happening. Do you have a link to the pdf form? Or more information about how you have set up the subforms to work may help.

Here is the attached file

Does this forum not provide attachment space???
The code is the same as in stefan camerons tutorial in my first link, but I modified the variables to fit with my own database. I did not attach the form before....as it uses a ODBC connection and wont work, unless the person looking at the file sets up an odbc connection as well.

It works, it just did not work as I wanted......

Since no one else has jumped in here, let me ask you -- -have you tried removing the check in the Binding>Repeat Subform for each data item> Min Count box and just using the "initial count " box?
