| message from Chris on 2 Jun 2004 |
I have a report with page header, page footer, and a VARIABLE number of
lines with data in the detail zone of the report.
How can I make the detail zone of the report to shrink or to grow for not
leting free space between the last line and the page footer?
Or, instead, how can I put a GRID in the report detail for the lines with
data and for the free space as well?

The page footer always prints at the bottom of the page, Chris, but you can
use a group footer instead, and that will print immediately after the last
detail line.

Thank you very much!
Can you help me with somethin else too?
How can I display just a specific page of the report(let's say just the page
2) ?
And more important: HOW CAN I DISPLAY/PRINT ON THE SAME A4 PAPER MORE
CONSECUTIVE PAGES OF A REPORT? I think that I must make another report with
subreports, but I don't know how to make it to display the data in that
mode.

If by 'display' you mean show in Print Preview mode, I don't know of any way
to do that. I expect that it is probably not possible, because Access
paginates the report (figures out how much space each item takes up and what
goes on which page) dynamically, as the user browses from page to page, so
there's no way for Access to know in advance which records will be on page
two, or if there will even be a page two at all. You can, of course, easily
*print* page two of the report, it's an option in the Print dialog box.
Your second question I've already attempted to answer in another thread, I'm
afraid I'm still not at all sure what you're trying to do. As others seem to
be having difficulty understanding the question as well, I would suggest
that you might try explaining some of the background of what you're trying
to achieve, that may make it easier to understand.
