2 Detail sections, or Repeating a Region

I am trying to generate a packing slip report. My question is, I want to be able to print (4) packing slips because there are 4 boxes in the job sent out. But...for each of the packing slips, I want to print Box # (x) contents, and also Box #1 Contents, Box #2 Contents...

So...if that made sense...

I want to print the contents of all the boxes on all 4 pages of the packing slips, and also, each of the 4 pages will have the corresponding boxes contents.

Can anyone help with this. I've read somewhere about repeating a region but not exactly sure how to implement this.

After thinking about my own question, would it be possible to send the contents of all 4 boxes contents to a separate table, then in the report, have it print for each corresponding page, and then print the entire contents (of that table) on every page?

Can you have (2) detail sections of a report?

On one, I want it to display all 4 of the contents, on the other, I want it to display just the current record and then do the ForceNewPage thing to make all 4 pages.

Can anyone help here?

Thanks,

 
Can you have (2) detail sections of a report?

well, you can use two (or more) subreports (with details) instead...
 
I inserted the subform/report but I can only get it to work if I put it in the page footer, then it is all the way at the bottom of the page. Any ideas?
