It look like we've hit a bug that causes the first line of text boxes to be dropped. It happens under very specific circumstances:
- The text box format is "Rich Text",
- the text box's "Can Grow" property is set to "Yes",
- the first page of the report is not included in the printout.
Has anyone encountered this bug before and knows a workaround?
How to reproduce the bug:
- Create an empty database.
- Create a new report in design view.
- Enlarge the Detail section to ensure that the report spans two pages (e.g. 31cm).
- At the bottom of the Detail section, add a Text box with the following properties:
- Control Source: ="<div>row1</div><div>row2</div>"
- Text Format: Rich Text
- Can Grow: Yes - Go to Print Preview. Note that row1 and row2 are shown on the second page.
- Print the report (completely). Note that row1 and row2 are being printed.
- Print only the second page of the report (in the Print Dialog: "Pages From: 2 To: 2").
Here's where the fun happens:
Expected result: row1 and row2 are being printed.
Observed result: Only row2 is printed.
