I have a system printing out customer orders, the header information (client address, order number etc) is all set-up in the OrderID Header area, plus space for the pre-printed paper used by the end-users. Then the Detail section, followed by a order total in the OrderID Footer, I finally have a page footer with a payment slip.

Orders with order lines that fit on once pages of A4 are fine, as they always are.

It's the ones with lots of order lines that paginate onto a second page, that I'm having the problem with.

Any lines which paginate to a new page are appearing right at the top of the new sheet (as I guess is normal), I need to force them down by 10 or so cm to cope with the headed paper used by the end users printer. So effectively only on pages that have continued do I need to "print" or "make visible" something to force the lines down. But not reprinting the OrderID header as that would waste too much space.

(Obviously the payment slip appears on the 2nd page too, I'm not that bothered unless I could easily make it invisible!) I've toyed with HasContinuted/WillContinue with no luck.

I'm fine with VBA, but this report has me stumped - any thoughts, ideas etc? Thank you :o
 
Anyone have any tips on this, cropping up again now, trying to solve it!
