Printing problem - relating to FMP5.5 - rather than printer

[Sean O'Donoghue]

Greetings Folks

On my "Accounts" form I have Date_Paid, Invoice_no, Customer & Total_Paid & Grand_Total fields of which are from my "Invoice" form. When I do a Query of the "Invoice" form for all paid invoices from 1/1/02 to 01/31/02 it finds all the invoices paid in that period & then when I open Accounts form in "View as List" mode, all the details are there, including Total.

The problem is that when I go to print them out, I get either just the 1st record or sometimes all the "Total-Paid" fields & the Grand_Total.

Any ideas as to why this happens?

Thanks in anticipation

Are you trying to print info from a portal?

[Keith M. Davie]

What records have you set your printer to print?

Records being browsed.

Current record.

Greetings Folks

Am I printing from Portal - Date & Customer are directly inputted & Grand_Total is a summery of Price fields from a portal plus postage costs.

And I have set Records being browsed to be printed

Ok, so it is not at the printer setting.

Sometimes if there is an intrusion into the body from a header, or into the header from a field in the body, and especially with portals if the field encraoches too far into or extends across the portal row there can be printing problems. Try checking this.

The best idea (especially in this situation) is NOT to print the portal. Goto the related file and generate the report.

You will make printing and troublshooting much easier on yourself.

There are no overlaps from or to headers - so it is not that.

The problem with this is that only the price is derivative - the monthly total is the sum of prices plus postage - which are in the invoice.
