We have a user who is useing HyperCard 2.0 to print a report from a stack of students and their grades and courses. He needs a header on each page, as well as the names of the fields on the top of each column. In HyperCard 1.2.5, I remember that there was a button to click to have field names printed. This seems to be missing in 2.0. Is this feature hidden, or was it lost in 2.0? Or is there another way to do this now? Thanks for your help. -- Michael Nowak.

You should be able to go into your report template, and create a new item on the page. Define this item to be the chunk "the short name of cd field foo". Something like that should work.

I only have figured out how to add new items to the report entries (the small boxes on the page) but not on the page itself. -- Michael Nowak.

Choose "New Item" from the Items menu. 4)A new outline appears on the page as a result. Double-click on it, and define the chunk, field, or whatever you want to appear in the Item. Hope this helps.
