Print a field longer than one page

I have a database with several fields.
One of them is a text field (I put it as a memo), that on a Word file is longer than one page.
I absolutely need to whole print it on an A4 size, that is to say on two or three pages, depending on the record.

Does anybody know how to allow a field to be printed on several pages, or how to size a field so that it takes 2 or more pages ?

Thanks in advance !

1) make sure the memo field is the bottom field in the report's body panel. I can be just one line in depth.

2) open the properties dialog for the body panel, set it to "expand" by checking that option.

3) for the memo field, set the properties to both "expand" and "reduce".

4) you cannot have a summary panel on the report.

That's it! Sue Sloan
