Hello All,

Is there any facility to print report in Newspaper style, i.e. reports having thin columns, when page ends, starts printing on right sides on the same page.

TIA
Milan.

I did this once, but it was quite difficult. I pre-processed all the data into a temp file, one field for each column, then did the report on the temp file. The problem is that you have to figure out how to get the right data into the fields, and also how to design the report so the page ends when the data in the field ends. If I remember correctly there were occasional problems when printed on different printers too.
