Not that I can think of. Remember, printers use a form feed or page feed, so
you'd have to write an app that printed to the screen. When the entire
"report" was finished, you could then commit it to paper.

I have seen a number of calculators that kept a scrollable "virtual tape"
that could be printed later... it used to be a popular learning tool as
people moved from one programming language to another, especially back in
the days of DOS. I don't recall seeing one of that type that was done in
Access, though.

Yeah, Ive seen the virtual ones also, awhile back! I imagine after I
hit the plus, minus, divide sign...etc, That would trigger a report.
I'm using a POS printer with role tape in it....maybe that will do the
trick.

Possible, but how would I get the fields setup for this? Would each
entry be a record? A few questions seem to be coming up. I guess I
could wait untill all of the info is input before its printed...or I
could do one of those onscreen tapes then print it. Any suggestions are
welcome!
Thanks

I think I'd set up a listbox to act as my virtual tape, then I'd use a
textbox to feed an underlying table which would then be requeried to refill
the list box.
