Does anyone know how to or if u can enter page breaks in reports... like ive got different headings and some of the headings are appearing on the end of the first one, and the data is coming up on the next page..

i want it to come all on the one page.. does anyone know how to do this?

thnx
 
Your header should be in the Page Header section of the report. Also, there is a property called "Force New Page" for instances when you want to print multiple records on seperate sheets, like the subform details on a form. Sean.
 
Thnx Perrymans,

but i still dont get where u put the details. ive got the details within page header, but under a different header, if u get wat that means... like its not directly under page header, but under a separate header... do u mean to move all the details to under page header?? i have found the property called force new page, but that tends to give me each new row on a new page, i sorta need it grouped together.

thnx again for your help
 
Put the "Force New Page" property in the last section, be it Detail or Footer, that you want to show on each page. Everything on that section and above will be on the first page, or pages if the data is more than a page long, and then it will start the next lot on a new page. Don't put it in a page footer though.
 
Keep the Details in the Details section, and the header in the Page Header section. Just shorten the secondary header until it meets with the Page Header.It sounds as though this second header is how you decided to group your data when you created the report. Have the Page Header info in that section and your pages contents in the Details section will keep them orginized. It also sounds like you may be trying to display different Headers and Details on different pages. Is that so? Sean.
