Print?

As I do to print the same content twice in two columns, like this:

Page 1. Page 2.
NAME: IVAN NAME: IVAN
LAST NAME: BATISTA LAST NAME: BATISTA

I am not using the ppDBPipeline I am passing the data directly for a
ppLabel1, and it is just a registration per time.

First option: Create two sets of labels. Create a dummy group on a custom
field such as a TppLabel. Resize the group header to be the height of the
page minus the page header and page footer heights. Use the group header to
print the page 1 and the detail band will be the page two. Then in the
OnGetText events of the labels, you can assign the data to the text
directly.

Second option: Create two section subreports in the main report. In each
subreport, duplicate the label controls and hook them up to the same event
handler, just as you would for the first option.

Third option: Create a JITPipeline with 2 records for the record count
property. Then create a new page group as you did in the first option and
force a page break of hte group after the first record by assigning a
different break value in the TppGroup.OnGetBreakValue event handler. This
approach means that you force a group break to get the second page. Feed the
data through the JITPipeline and use TppDBTexts. See the main reports demo
project in the NoDatabase Reports section for exampels of printing reports
using JITPipelines. There is an article on controlling a page break using
groups in the tech-tips newsgroup and there should also be a help topic on
the group event as well in the RBuilder.hlp file.
