hidden lines at top of report

I've finally gotten my 1st report functional. Unfortunately, there is a huge
chunk of hidden lines -- blank lines -- at the top of the report. You see
my header, then a big blank space, scroll down and you get the data. I'm all
over the layout formatting but I"m just not finding it. Any thoughts?
-- LynnDoes anybody know what I could do to remove all the blank lines in between my
header and my report body?

I do not know if this is at all relevant in your case, but are you using
filters? If so, where are you filtering?
The reason that I ask is that I got this problem when I was filtering
results from my dataset, using a filter within a table group, rather than a
filter on the entire table itself. When I switched my filter to the latter,
the problem disappeared.
Long shot I know, but I thought it was worth mentioning just in case.

whatever you used in your report body (table,list) started all of the way at
the top, right under where your header ends? If you leave any white space in
the grid, it seems to use that. Are the lines hidden because you hid them
intentionally, or is it a spacing issue?

this information handy, should that change.

between the header and the actual report body. I put my mouse there and
scrolled down, finding it highlighted the empty lines...so I just called them
'hidden'. And to my knowledge, the header is only big enough to fit what
I've given it. The body, too, as I've started it right at the top. I just
don't know what is causing this.
