My data looks like this:

 

I created a Detail Trap to get most of the data I need.  Then I created an Append to trap the line I have highlighted above.  This line is a continuation of the line above it.  I am trying to create 2 fields from this line and have the data correlate to the line above.

 

When I create the Fields with the Append it take that data and shows it for every one below it instead of just the one above it.

 

Results I am getting

Results That I want:

 

Any suggestions?

    Hello Melissa

     

    Change the type of template from Append to Group Footer and you should be fine.

     

    Best wishes,

    Hi Olly!

     

    Thanks so much the suggestion.  I did that but now it is filling in upwards to all the lines:  see below:

    Is there a way I can get that data to only show for the one line?

     

    Thank you!!

    Doh, sorry. Make the Footer Template to be Cleared By the Detail template.
