Ok, completely untested, just pulling this out of my.... thoughts:
1. Quick and sloppy - add a group field to your output cursor, have 2 duplicate records for each line of data, but group for record 1 is "data", 2 is "picture" No detail lines on report, just groups and break to new page on group change. Obviously text data goes in group 1, photo in group 2. 2. Just play around with the size of the detail band. Put all text in top of band, leave some space, then put the image control under it, and play with the sizing until the report prints the text and is forced to break to next page to print the control. Play with the "Page break when...remaining" setting as well. -- Vince Teachout Caracal Software www.caracal.net 518-733-9411 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
