    Access report "Overflow" error on export to HTML (PDF works fine)

    A quick review - now I can see what you are trying to do, I think the solution is to use a union query - you will need 2, 3 or 4 for each table. one for the data, one for the total and perhaps one for the heading e.g. 'Grouping Title for Sub-report 1:'. (Which seems pretty meaningless to me...

    Access report "Overflow" error on export to HTML (PDF works fine)

    can't really help without seeing the data/queries - and not clear what your final report is supposed to look like with 6 subreports.

    total number of pages is 437 -see attached I did this per my suggestion on the other thread of simply removing the subreport, adding the other table to the recordsource and copy/pasting the controls from the subreport to the main report.
