I wish to use an access report to print wedding invitations.
The problem lies in the fact that I have anywhere between two entries (Joe
Bloggs & Guest) and approximately 5 entries (Fred Flintstone & Wife & Kid 1
& Kid 2 Etc).

I want to set up an A4 page to print two Invites so I can Guilotine it in
half and produce A5 invites, but I want to assign a set size to the complete
detail section and not each entry in the detail section.

If anybody has any Ideas I would be extremely Grateful.

Thanks In Advance,

John Ortt

I have tried to represent what I want below:

_________________

<Invite 1>
We want to Invite
YOU
& GUEST
- <Spare Name Slot>
- <Spare Name Slot>
To our Wedding

& DAUGHTER
& SON
To our Wedding
