    Keeping records in order after cutting

    Keeping records in order after cutting

    Yes. There are only 2 options #1 #2 #1 #3 #3 #4 #2 #4 Next Page or Next Page #5 #6 #5 #7 #7 #8 #6 #8 This will not work when cutting the report into quarters

    Open program with path in field

    I have made this work before with hyperlinks. This creates more problems for me though.

The form is a pop-up that does not have min/max buttons which...
