Hi katdbc,

You have to set the height of the block for this to work. In the properties for the block under 'Positioning' open the 'Size & Overflow' dialog. Set the hieght to something like .2 inches. And dont worry, this had me stumped for awhile when I started off with Cognos less than 2 months ago!

Also you could use a 3 row table and put the lists in the 1st and 3rd row, and sett he height of the second row to whatever gap you wanted.

Jeremy I have one more question for you,

when I run the page having two list reports. I get results with set of pages having results from both of them. How do I make them continuous like I want to see alll the rows from my first list reports and then I want all the rows from  the second list report.

I dont know Why this is happening?

Thanks in advance,Jeremy
