[AccessD] Background Color for Entire Access Report Page

Hi Brad: 

Unless your company is paying for it, has a big Okidata/Fujitsu colour
printer/copier it would be much cheaper to just change the paper. (Using an
inkjet of course is a sign of insanity.)

If your client wants pages with all blue have your app prompt them to change
paper or redirect the printing to a tray with blue paper.

Subject: [AccessD] Background Color for Entire Access Report Page

All,

I would like to make the background of an entire report page light blue in
color.

I thought that this would be really easy to do.  I simply used a "fill"
color for each of the sections of the report (Report Header, Page Header,
Detail, Page Footer, Report Footer).

My test report only has a few lines of data that fills about 1/3 of the page
at the top.

When I print the report, the top 1/3 of the page is blue, the very bottom of
the report (the page footer) is blue, but there is a large area of the page
that is still white.

Is there a way to make the entire page blue?

Thanks,
Brad
