Can anyone tell me what causes the Bottom Offset and Print Position
controls to be grayed-out when I right-click the Position option of my
report Page Footer?  It is only happening on the Footer and I want to
have the Footer print directly under the last report detail rather than
at the page bottom.

The definition of a page footer is a band that aligns at the bottom margin and 
grows up from there.  As such, the bottom offset is determined from the bottom 
margin, and the print position from bottom margin and height of the band.

To get the effect you want, you'll need a group footer or report footer.  If 
your report is such that you want running page totals across multiple pages, 
with the _final_ page total appearing not on the bottom of the page but rather 
after the last detail line, you'll need to use _two_ bands to show the totals 
-- the page footer for all pages except the last one in the group, and the 
group footer for the last page in the group.  You will also probably want code 
to determine when you've hit the last page of a group and make the objects in 
the page footer invisible in that instance.
