Good Morning!<br>
<br>
I have a report which provides a Quotation to customers. I have a main form and a sub form. The sub form takes care of the individual items to be quoted. The Main form holds the customer name, address and other basic information.<br>
<br>
My problem here is that I keep getting one blank page before the actual quotation so that I end up with the Quotation starting on Page 2 of 3 for example, when it should be Page 1 of 2.<br>
<br>
I have put the subform in the report footer along with a field called Notes which must appear once at the end of each quotation.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions? <p>Lanie<br><a href=mailto:etroidl@conaxfl.com>etroidl@conaxfl.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
 
Well you will have to do some experimenting.<br>
Try removing different things on your report.<br>
such as the subreport and see if it gives the desired result.<br>
Now of course don't save it just remove it and preview it.<br>
This trail an error approach may shed some light on the problem.<br>
It is possible that the subreport is too big to fit on a page or too wide.<br>
<br>
I hope you meant or are using a sub &quot;report and Not a Sub form in your report.<br>

LOL, yes I meant subreport . . . . I will keep trying...I have done some experimenting like putting the subreport in the Detail section with the result that if I had 4 lines in the subreport, I got four quotations! <br>
<br>
Thanks for your help.
 
try putting the quotation in the header and the sub report in the Detail section. this should produce 1 quote, and however many of the subreport are appropriate. <p>Brian Famous<br><a href=mailto:bfamous@ncdoi.net>bfamous@ncdoi.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
 
Hey as long as you're trying everything how about putting the sub report in the report footer?
