I have a form that is several pages long because of the contents I had to make really 3 different forms and then I made a button to move to the next pages but it is really one persons record on all of these pages is there a way to make it print all of the forms for that person at the same time rather than going to each form and priting separtely? Does this make sense, I hope so, if not I can clearfiy.
 
Forms are not optimised for printing, use a report, you can save the form as a report.
 
Thanks!!How do you do that???
 
I only have 97, but save as report isn't on the design toolbar by default you have to add the option by customising the toolbar. Post back if you need more help.
 
Rich,
I have 2000, but I can save it as a report but I need all three forms on the same report because all of them are one client's information, it tells me to save them a three different reports?
 
You can create a master report that includes subreports. Go ahead and save your different forms to different reports. Then create your 'master' report and add the other reports to that.

Sub-reports?
Good Lord...
And here I thought I was getting the hang of Access FINALLY..what the heck is the purpose of a Sub-Report? I didn't even know Access had such a creature...
jeebus help me...
 
If all the records on the form relate to one person and there is a unique ID which links them then you do not need sub reports, is your form based on a query single table?
 
You may need subreports if the total length of the defined reports exceeds 22 inches. Besides, printing the same data and report formatting on individual reports takes a whole lot longer than printing the same data and formatting as a report with subreports.
