Hello,

I created database for sales. One for product with taxe, one for product without taxe, one for the inventory of products and one for the sales.

Everything works great execpt for the receipt.

I need to print the receipt on a thermal printer. In the database for sale, I created a layout with portal of product with taxe and an other one with product without taxe to compile all sales of the same billing.

My problem is that I don't print on a Letter format, it's a long printing depending of the number of itmes of the sales. If on one portal I asked for 8 rows and I have 9 articles, I will have the last article printed on a new page. I need all articles in the same printing, like in the supermaket.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Regards,

Martial

This is not a solution, just a crutch, but one thing you can do it to build several versions. Have one with 10 rows, one with 15, etc. Then set a Print subscript to choose a layout based on how many items there are. This isn't as bad as it sounds: the layouts would be identical except for one change in number, and you could avoid a long If or Case statement by using the GoTo Layout (value from field) option -- have a calc field that transforms the number of articles into the number of the layout you want.

Don't print portal, use the related file instead....
