summary sheets from temp file

Does the first "If" line in your code have the "If 1="" then end"?  If so, take out the 1="" from the "If" line and just leave the "end" on the then line.  

If field 1 is not equal to blank then the code will continue into the @sbrk1 code, and then the code in @sbrk1 runs again when the break value changes causing it to run twice like you are seeing.

One more thing to note, on the actual print outs with this processing, the last page it prints (for client 5499, which is in fact the highest client
number) does show aa as 0091 and ab as 0091 (which 0091 is the highest acct number for 5499) ?
The first 3 pages (for clients 2435, 3194 and 3981) show aa is blank but ab is correct --
