Help, help newbie: Print totals in a form
I have a purchase order form with this layout more or less:
+---------------------------------------+
| orderno group header (supplier) | 1
+---------------------------------------+
| detail/subreport:(orderdetail ) | 2
+---------------------------------------+
| orderno group footer (payment terms) | 3 (in a region)
| long memo (could split b/w pages) |
+---------------------------------------+
| footer: abbreviations meaning etc | 4
+---------------------------------------+
Now I need to add the totals for the order b/w 3 and 4.
Notice that the while the footer must print in every page,
the totals must be there *only* in the last page, *and*
at the end of it, close to the footer.
I am using summary band now, but to print at the end of
the page I am moving *manually* the totals to the end of
the page, isn't there another way?
I am also using a trick that digital metaphors provided to
draw two lines from the end of 3 down to the beginning of 4
( one at the right and the other at the left).

Do you want the summary band to align itself to the bottom of the page, just
above the page footer band?
