Report Design: Report detail area (gray box) ghosting (duplicating itself) in report

Question

What caused, or how can I prevent, the gray box (report detail area) in the report form from duplicating itself (ghosting), usually in the bottom right side of the report when the report is run. First thought is there is another gray box, even just a tiny speck of a box in the report form down where the data is showing again, but there isn't . See example below / attached. 
 Thank you, Jim Schuett, 480-277-7550, jim@sage100reports.com

I was able to resolve, but still don't know why it occurred. It was on page 2,3, etc, so on page 2 in the report form. I replaced page 2 with a copy of page one, then made the changes needed, and that took care of it.

Sometimes we don't realize we are in the mode that creates the detail box. If you click in the form you may have created a super tiny detail box that you cant' even see. I usually try the "Edit, select objects" and then draw a box around the area to see if it picks up anything that you can't see.
