Hello,

I am using Access 2002 and I would like to have a report that will show two
different records in one 8x11 sheet. The sheet actually tears apart in
half. For example:


Reliance Insurance
10322 Farmington Grove $500,000






ReAliance Insurance
7800 Day Ave $400,000




Every sheet will have two different records and there are about 100 records.
How do I do this. If I go into the detail band I only will get one record
at a time. Can anyone help me. Thank you in advance.

Cheers
 
Cam,

Hope this suggestion helps you. I had two different bank statements that I
wanted to view on the same financial statement.

I created subreports for each portion ie, income section, expense section On
the main report, I opened it with a banking header within which I put the
beginning balance. I then, in the detail section, put the income section and
expense section. This all went on the left side of the report. on the right
side of the page, I created a separate report in which I put the same
information as in the first report only called the report for the left side,
LCBPortion.

within that LCBPortion, I had the beginning balance, the income section, the
expense section, and in the banking footer, I added the
=[begbal]+[txtincrun]-[txtexprun].

Also, within the detail section of each report, I added
=IIF(SubRpt.LCBincome].[report].[has
data].[SubRpt.LCBIncome].[Report].[TxtIncomeSum],0]

In addition, you must make that same statement for each sub-report you have
within the main report. Of course, you will substitute the actual name of the
sub-report rather than SubRpt.LCBincome. ie you would put [SubRpt_LCBExpense]
An important thing is to make sure all your names are exactly as they appear
with the sub-report or text boxes. If not, you will have to go back and
change things. It is not fun to have to do that and it is very time consuming.

Best of Luck,
Karen
