I am trying to create a Bill of Lading which displays the following detail lines along with a block to text which does not change, and which prints on the right side of every page of the BOL. The detail lines are a subreport in GH2.

Example

Page 1
Line, Qty, Item, Descrip, Gross Weight | I want text here
1 10 1234 Cookies 10 lbs | that prints on
2 50 5384 Cupcakes 40 lbs | every page, no
3 5 9387 Muffins 6 lbs | matter how few
4 10 2389 Soap 70 lbs | or many lines
etc | are on the
etc | page. The text
etc | is the same on
etc | every page.
to bottom of page 1


Page 2
Line, Qty, Item, Descrip, Gross Weight | I want text here
21 10 1234 Coffee 10 lbs | that prints on
22 50 5384 CocaCola 40 lbs | every page, no
23 5 9387 Chocolate 6 lbs | matter how few
24 10 2389 Sugar 70 lbs | or many lines
etc | are on the
etc | page. The text
etc | is the same on
etc | every page.
to bottom of page 2


I cannot figure out how to get the text on EVERY page of the BOL. Any help is appreciated.
 
Place your text in a page header. Then in section expert check the Underlay following sections box.

If you already have a PH, split header in to two sections and only do this to the lower section.

Thanks Ian. That worked perfectly. I have another question. Do you know how to set Crystal to always print 3 copies of a specific report without it printing 3 copies of every report. Further, is there a way to get "Copy1", "Copy2", "Copy3" on the bottom of each page?

Thanks

The only way I can think of doing it is to add two copies of the report as subreports.

If I don't want them collated, do I place the subs in two separate report footers?

If I DO want them collated, where do I place them?
 
Not sure what you mean by collated.

YOu will have to place them in two separate report footers.
