I am trying to print onto a preprinted document (that cannot be changed - it is a legal doc) and am struggling on page 2.
The first page prints correctly but on subsequent pages the data prints 1 cm higher. The whole page is stored in the detail section - no headers or footers. Can anyone help me with getting the data on page 2 and subsequent pages printing in the correct location?

many Thanks

Jon
 
Have you set up the pages with a page break or are you using header/footer sections?
 
No page breaks or headers/footers.

All Data manipulation is handled in Detail_format and the natural page throw occurs after each record ...
 
All I can think of is adding a page header 1cm high and adding a report header 0cm and setting the Page Header Property to 'Not with report header'.
 
Hi Remou, you set me thinking - I lowered the detail line so that it is just above the first unbound field. I then forced a page throw
Code:
Me.Detail.ForceNewPage = 2
for each page after the first and, hey presto. It works!
Thanks

Jon
