Hi All,

I am currently working on a form where the user will be entering data into a table. To add more items, they can simply click on a "Add Line" Button. However, when the table crosses over to the second page, I want TWO rows to repeat but LC is not allowing me to do this and I have no idea why.

In the hierarchy, I have two header rows called Header Button and HeaderRowInitial. I want BOTH to repeat when the table crosses to the second page. However, Adobe only allows ONE of these rows to repeat on subsequent pages. When I tell one to repeat on subsequent page, the other one unclicks the box automatically. Why is this the case? Is there a way to go around this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Edward Kuk

Tro to group both header rows together.
Select them both in the hierachie view and click right to open the context menu.
Select "Group as section".

Hi radzmar,
The method works great! However, when I save the form and reopen it, the table gets all messed up. It starts to repeat the second row of the header for no reason. Any idea whats wrong?

Thanks,
Ed

Sorry,

no idea what's causing this.
Maybe a script or a bug.
What version do you use?

I am using ES2 (9.0). Would you be able to look at the form if I send it to you via e-mail?

Thanks,
Ed

Problem fixed.
It was caused because the option "Repeat Row For Each Data Item" was activated for the second row in the binding tab.
