[AccessD] Is it possible...

Bruce,

    Apparently, your requirement translates into printing first portion of the report (containing n number of pages) in portrait layout, followed by remaining portion in landscape layout.

    If the presumption made above is correct, are you in a position to set up two separate reports in respective layouts? If so, it should be possible to ensure that page numbering for second report is in continuation to the first one, so that overall, it constitutes one report.

Best wishes,
A.D.Tejpal

  .. to change the orientation of a report half way through.

  I've not tried this before.  But now I've got a sub report that occurs several pages into a report and it would fit better if the page orientation was landscape.

  In fact it would only fit at all.

  Page 1 has summary information, 5 subreports (4 graphs and a short table)
  Page 2-n has an item by item subreport
  Page 2n+1 I want to put an analysis summary of the (2-n) items

  I have the sub report for the analysis, its' "beautiful", but it needs to be landscaped.

  AS I said, I've not tried this before,  I tried various .Orientation and 
  various PrtDevMode hacks but I'm beginnig to think it's not possible?

  regards
  Bruce
