combining multiple format reports into one

I have 3 very detailed report formats that I combine into one format using Acrobat
Is there a way in Access 97-2000 to combine multiple reports as if you were just concatenating them one after the other

I have tried it using sub reports with no data source on the main report, but I run into space and margin issues
This would save me a great deal of work if I didn't have to run 4 reports and recombine them each time

Thank you

I'm unfamiliar with any space or margin ssues associated
with subreports. One big difference between using a report
as main report versus as a subreport is that subreports do
not process page headers/footers or the Page event.

If you can live with the page related issues, then maybe I
can help you sort out the margin issue. If you want to
pursue this, post back with more details about what you're
having trouble with.

If you want to automate the output and merging of your reports to a single
PDF file, then take a look at our PDF and Mail Library for Access. You can
also print the reports after merging them if desired. You'll find it on our
web.
