    Exclamation Adding additional pages to an access report


    So hoping to get a bit of help, we are doing a report out of access but want to add a second page, so page 1 is the report page 2 to be a page of disclaimer, page 3 the report again and so on so alternating pages.
    Is there a way to do this in access maybe merge one report on alternative pages of another?
    Or do i need to be looking to get them out of access to word or the like?

    In the report,either :
    Use a blank report and add 3 sub reports.
    the 1st sub report is page1, etc.
    or
    In a single report,using 8x11" paper,
    build the page1, stretch the page bottom past the 11",
    put page2 text there, stretch the bottom past the 22" for page3.

    Yes it is possible to do what you need.

    There are several options.

    Are you printing full duplex (front and back)?

    If it is the same disclaimer on the back of every page then I would consider getting it pre-printed. I have yet to not be able to find a service that could print the "disclaimer" on the "back side" of the paper cheaper than you could do it yourself. Plus you save the wear on your printing. Making it last longer. This does assume a higher volume of printing to reach past the break-even point. If you are only printing a few hundred pages a month on a laser then it is cheaper to do it yourself. If you are printing on an inkjet, then preprinted is almost always cheaper.

    I have several customers that print a ream, or more, of paper with the disclaimer on their multifunction copier/laser printer. Making their own pre-printed paper. They run the paper through again on the other side to print with Access. They find this is much faster.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
