keckfmp Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) I would think this would be easy to achieve, but I can't figure it out and have searched all over to no avail. I want a sub-summary to print at the top of every page with a maximum of 6 body records printed. Here are some examples of how this should look for various numbers of records within the sub-summary grouping. In this example, there are 18 records in the found set, the sort field breaks them up into 3 groups (3 records, 6 records, 9 records). I want that displayed as follows: Page 1: Sub-summary group 1 record 1 record 2 record 3 Page 2: Sub-summary group 2 record 1 record 2 record 3 record 4 record 5 record 6 Page 3: Sub-summary group 3 record 1 record 2 record 3 record 4 record 5 record 6 Page 4: Sub-summary group 3 record 7 record 8 record 9 For that last group I want the Sub-summary part printed on top of both page 3 and page 4. I played with various combinations of page breaks, page breaks after x occurrences, etc. For that third group it will simply print the final 3 records at the top of page 4 with no leading sub-summary. Any thoughts? Edited March 24, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcooney Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 It's not you! FM doesn't directly support repeating sub-summary parts if the body breaks across a page. I believe there's a technique out there for this. I don't have time now to search, but maybe Michael (comment) will chime in. It's probably his technique that I recall, lol.

comment Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Perhaps I am missing something. but it seems you could put the sub-summary data in the header and use the sub-summary part only to force a page break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
