Only print some

[Why Me?]

How can I get my report to print only a specified number of records.

Somebody has to help. It sounds like it should be so simple but I've tried using the filter property of the report as well as the criteria section of the query and even the report footer itself. I need to know the correct syntax and where to put it. I am a novice and though this may seem simple to most of you, I'm struggling here!!!

If you look at the solutions database that comes with access, they have a section called "Control what you print on reports". They show a calendar where you only selcet certain dates. Not sure if that will help with what you want, but I have found playing around with some of the pre-existing reports/forms often helps me to get what I want.

I,ve used that as well when I need to print certain dates but I need to to just print the records in increments as specified by the user. They want to be able to print a few records for testing purposes, update these records then print another few to test and so on. I know I will need some kind of parameter query but I'm not sure how to set it up.
