Hi, I have this multiple page report for which I would like to make the topmargin wider on the continuous pages than on the 1st page.
I have unsucesfully implented a Printwhen<>_pageno=1 on a few extra blank lines in my Page Header with radiobutton ‘Float’ activated, h/e this results in a partly blank header on my 1st page and a correctly formatted and printed header on my following page. How to get rid off the blank part header on my 1st page, or maybe better how to set the topmargin programmaticaly on the consequent pages?

Thanks for replying

Hi Koen,

Instead of blanks lines, use a textbox which contains something like CHR(13) + CHR(13) + CHR(13) + CHR(13). Set it to "Stretch with overflow", and have it print only when _pageno > 1.

Jim,

Thanks for quick reply, also with a tag in "remove line if blank" and it works.
