I designed an essay layout report in form view that consists of ten questions, with answer fields below each question. These text fields are formatted with a scrollbar to accommodate extended amounts of text.The entire report fits on one page in browse mode as formatted.

I want to print this report and have the answer fields expand appropriately, depending on the amount of text entered for each question. The printed report could end up with one page or ten pages, depending on the length of each answer.

I know I need to set up a separate layout specifically designed for printing, but cannot format it correctly.

I have asked for help before on this forum and have always had a positive result. Any help with this current issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,

Steve

Your print layout should have large text fields that are set to slide up and reduce the size of the enclosing part.

Look at Sliding/Printing -- toward the bottom of the Format menu while in Layout mode.

That worked out fine. For some reason, I thought it was only possible to slide one field up.

One of the fields had text clipped between pages, I believe I can fix this by moving the involved fields up or down slightly.

Thank You!
