Collate

Post by Tim_Barr_(Guest) » Mon Jun 18, 2001 1:09 pm

Can^t seem to collate when printing multiple copies of a report. I check the "collate" box in the print dialog box, but it still just prints sequentially, i.e. pg1, pg1, pg2, pg2, pg2, instead of pg1, pg2, pg1, pg2. I have tried it (I think) every way, saving the setting with the report, getting the user to check it at runtime and (if the print driver supports it) setting it up in the printer settings. I am running R&R V9.0.007 on a WinNT 4.0 SP6a printing to a Lexmark OptraS 1625 with the Lexmark version 4.7 drivers.

Add a calculated field with the expression COPY() and place it on a non-printing line in the report and see if this helps.____Kathleen__R&R Support

That worked! So simple, if not all that obvious, you ended hours of frustration, thank you.

You are correct. That is now obvious. I ahv been using R&R for several years and would not have thought of that.
