    that usu means your report is too wide. Shrink the width of the report (the white edge in design mode) so it finishes that line on page1.

    That worked, it's printing on one page now,

    new problem (same pc), we print via a epson dot matrix lq 2090, and the pages stopped lining up , e.g. it prints and then feeds a quarter of the next page through, it did not do this before the page went out of alignment, would that be a access issue or a printer settings??

    Thanks again

    could be either - check the paper size for the report, also check you have a page break control in the right place. Also check the printer settings in windows for the default printer

    thanks will have to have a play around and see what i can come up with, it seems to be jumping about all over tha page now, too far left then too far right, and thats without changing settings, eg can print 2 docs at same time and they will print at 2 different locations on the page, very strange

    Thanks again
