Need to set details area to a fixed number of printed rows

[RSitze]

2:30 AM, and I am trying to create a preprinted form that can be updated by hand during the work-day.

X-)

Scenario is that up to fifteen records might be printed that day, but normally it would be less, say seven. When the report prints, I would like those seven rows to print, then the remaining eight rows (in this example) printed with correct formatting (lines etc.) and spacing.

This is for an office worker who would like to hand write additional information on the printed form for data entry at the end of day as it comes up. If I can get it to work they would have column headers, space and lines to write on that match up to the pre-printed portion.

I'm already using the incremental numbered row trick as the row header, is there a tweak that will force it to continue autonumbering to my needed length?

Thanks in advance!

What is the incremental numbered row trick? Do you mean the =1 with Sum = OverAll? Joe Miller

That's the very one . . .

Still no solution at my end.

Create a 'blank' table with only the row number filled to the number of "idiot" rows you want. Fill this table with the "daily" info - up to the number of rows. Use this "idiots" table as the source for your form.
