Yes Ron that is correct. It is a function of windows vs DOS, not a version of RBase. You cannot string reports together anymore (unless you're using txt emulation RBase reports). What I have successfully done in every situation is to create a report with subreports for each piece, but it is usually quite a bit of work. Or with the "2 pass" setting now available, if one of the pages is a summary and the other pages are detail, I've been able to put summary data in a report header. At one client the reports were so different, and they insisted it be "one file", we print each report to its own PDF file, then use PDFMerge to merge all the PDF files into one master PDF file.

In the DOS 6.5 version you could string reports together on a single sheet of paper. It seems with Windows that every PRINT command will result in a page feed at the end. Is this correct? Are there any work arounds you could advise me of? Ron On Tue, Jan 7, 2014 at 3:37 PM, A.

There is no such option as automatic page feed when printing reports in 9.5. You will have to re-visit that specific converted/upgraded legacy report in Report Designer, specifically the following sections: 01. Report Designer | Main Menu | File | Page Setup ...
