people do append a new record when they enter new things, but people enter long lists at this point in time i think its more hassle than its worth to split a column. I will see how this database evolves and if there are any issues how it is. thanks.

yeah i know how to use that statement but cant think how to implement it to break up a text field over 2 columns

ok i understand it now, but how can this be implemented in a 2 column report to split it between columns? say for instance i have 13 two line items and this long one that wont fit on the first column and needs to be split to be on second column

i dont have any idea what you mean or how i could implement this it is formatted as 2 columns but if a long row wont fit in one column it moves the entire record to the next column which i dont want. I have one query that spits out a series of records, some like in picture above are quite...

i have an access 97 database where i have people enter text and it gets printed out onto a report with 2 columns. sometimes people enter a long column of text, maybe 40 lines, and when it gets printed on a report if there is already some text from a previous person printed on the elft column the...

what i thought. oh well, we will live with it. thanks.

Man your a legend. all sorted out now, i adapted it to work on reports and it is fine. and they print fine, just used to display like crap.

no i didnt unless i missed something.

i have a series of thumbnail bitmap images that are pretty damn good quality when viewed in paint or any other program but as soon as i put them into a report their quality is awful to the point i cannot hand this to a customer like it is. the image size is not changing, its just awful looking...

i have hundreds of thumbnail images of people on the hard drive, they are named by their ID in a database. i want to be able to run a query and display in rows of about 6, pictures of the results of queries on a form. this result could be dozens of people at a time. how do i do this?? i cant...
