Overlay printing and

edited May 2003 in General
I am using D6 and RB6.03

Is it possible to print an image ( for e.g a statement with boxes around
columns of data )
then go back to the top of the same page and print data to fit within the
boxes

I guess, print two diffrernt RTM's on the one page

I have an old dos application ( I am converting ) which still does that
and it makes the report template a lot simpler

I cannot seem to draw a number of boxes with a fixed deptth
to frame columns of data ( without a massive amount of work )

    Nigel,

    Try using the Page Style to print the images for the boxes. The Page Style
    will always print behind the main report bands and is perfect for form
    emmulation. To access the Page Style, select the Report | Page Style menu
    option in the Report Designer.
