I want to print a purchase orden when sent to printer i want to print in the firt page a label that say "ORGINAL" and the other page say "COPY".
Let me explay you: I has a purchase order when i dend to printer appear en windows of control printer tell that i'am print 2 copy. When print the document (could be more of one page) the firt document has to sey "ORIGINAL" and the other copy has to say "COPY"

 
There are several wasy to do this:

1) You could manually control the report to say "Original" or "Copy" via a parameter. This would let you print one or the other if you needed to.

2) You could use a subreport and have a second copy of the P/Order with the appropriate text in both reports. This would always print two copies (one "Original" and one "Copy").

3) If you can write a VB program, you could develop a simple report printer that printed the "Original" using a formula in the report, then change the formula to now say "Copy" and then reprint it. Not a lot of code required, but does require a programmer.

I'd be interested in what approaches the other might suggest. Editor and Publisher of Crystal Clear
