how can i create a 2 page report with 2 different page layouts? is there some way to link reports into one report that share a common page counter?
thanks,

There is a function called Page which identifies which page number you report is currently at. This allows you to have a front page, say for an invoice, and if the items on the invoice require more than a single page then a different header and footer can be used for any subsequent pages -- you can also use ContinuesTo and ContinuesFrom functions to add sophisticated formatting to your reports.

You need to play around to acheive the results.
 
Does anyone have any additional information regarding this thread? I am attempting a similar project that requires page one of my report to be formatted differently from all subsequent pages (Different Header & Footer). I am not familiar with the ContinuesFrom or ContinuesTo functions and countless searches on the web or MSDN did not provide any results. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
