New User here trying to come close to the pre-printed forms that our clients are using and that the various state goverments we deal with are wanting to make mandatory____I need/want to print lines like this with scanned child tables____child1->field1 child1->field2 child2->field1 child2->field2____and put a box around each set of the data____And I need a way to limit the number of child records printed so the number of lines on the page remains constant ( print first six child records only - balance of child records on another page ) I can force the second page from within my application - just generate a different report if child records exceed the limit of 6 that will fit on the first report - but how to limit the child to only 6 on the main report ???______

You might be able to handle this with line logic on a pagebreak band line. Using a total field to identify where you are in the count of child records and then making a band active when it hits a threshold might work.
