New paging

rbuser

Hi,

I am replacing an existing report (sales orders, which used to be printed on
multi-part stationery [3 copies]) with a newer version.

I want the user to still click the print button once, but this time, my
template will churn out 3 copies from the same data source, but each copy
will have slight different variations displayed. After each copy, I want a
fresh page.

I am trying to counter this problem, by creating 3 regions, each of these
regions consists of a subreport. But they don't seem to be printing on new
page....

How exactly do i solve this problem?

Thanks in advance..

Hi,

Instead of using three regions, try placing three Section style Subreports
in the detail band of your main report, with the copies of each report
inside each subreport. Section style subreports will print on their own
page all in one print job as you requested.

Hi,

The following example shows how to create a three page report (out of three
section subreports) with one apearing in a different orientation. You'll
probably want to forget the orientation aspect but it will give you an idea
how you can create your report.
