My situation is that I have a report that is two pages long for each record. The first page of the first record is suppose to print to tray 3 where I have my letter head the second page of the first record is suppose to print to tray 2 where I have plain paper. This is suppose to happen to all my records ther first page of all the records are to print in tray 3 and the second page of all the records are to print in tray 2, but this does not happen I can only print the first page of the first record on the tray 3 and the rest of the records default to tray 2.

If you can help me with this problem it will be tremendously appreciated!

I have this exact same problem. I want the first page of each record to print to a letter head and the following pages not too.

Is there a way to change the print tray during printing based on a value of the records on the page.
or can you only set it before the report is previewed and all the data calcluated?

Thanks very much
Andrew
 
I have in the past made a simple form which pulled two separate reports each formated for the appropriate tray. This way the end user won't notice that it is pulling two separate reports.

One word of caution, if you are needing conintuous pagination this doesn't work well.
