Change Order of Printing 3-up.

[royalpark]

I found an example of how to print a booklet in post #159084 that I thought would be helpful to my situation, but isn't exactly what I need to accomplish. I can see needing some of that logic, but can't figure out what I need to do.

I need to pring 3 "forms" on a 8.5 x 11 page with the order going "through" the job.

In other words: if I have 12 forms (typically there would be several thousand) to print, page 1 would have forms 1, 5 and 9. Page 2 would have form 2, 6 and 10. Page 3 would have form 3, 7, 11. Page 4 would have form 4, 8 and 12.

After printing, the pages would be cut into thirds and the forms would all be in the correct order, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc. after the "piles" of forms are physically combined on top of each other.

Thanks in advance for any help offered!

This is much simpler than the other one:

EXCELLENT! Thank you for your response.

Is it possible to add a "form number" to each form to make sure they are kept in order?

I am afraid I don't understand your question. In my demo, the records to print are found and sorted before being imported to the temp table. In the temp table, they are printed in the same order (or, more precisely, they are re-ordered so that the "virtual order" is kept the same in the final result).

I just saw that. Sorry. The serial number keeps the order I am looking for.

Thanks again!
