    help with hascontinued

    My question deals with the HasContinued property. How do you set it up? Whenever I try to use it, Access thinks that it's a variable and wants a value. If there's a better way, what I'm trying to do is have a header that ONLY appears when a list from the previous page continues into the current...

    Displaying headers on a new page within a report

    Okay...most of that makes sense, but from what I've read, "Me" is supposed to refer to whatever report it is a part of, however, it's not getting recognized in my report. Once again, it's asking for an entry when I go into print preview.

    Displaying headers on a new page within a report

    Okay...That's a step in the right direction, but access help isn't telling me how to define it. I feel kinda dumb cuz I'm a C programmer, but I can't figure out how to get it to recognize the value. It keeps coming up with a dialog box asking for a value for the HasContinued property.

    Displaying headers on a new page within a report

    Is there a way to display a header on a new page in the middle of a group? For example, one of my reports tracks which OS is on a computer, so in the report, it sorts according to OS. When a group wraps to a new page, is there a way to have a unique header such as "W 2k continued..." displayed?

    Sorting by name

    That's what I've done and it sorts by the numbers, not the letters.

    Displaying information associated with an ID number

    Unfortunately, I've been given a half completed database and told to finish it. Unfortunately, I've never used Access before, and I'm having trouble getting it to display some info in a report. The info in a table is in two columns, an ID number in the first, and then the description in the...
