printing multipage letter

[sparkane]

I have some letter templates in a database. Sometimes when printing
(using an Access report), the control displaying the letter body cuts
off the end of the letter. I set the control's CanGrow/CanShrink
properties to Yes; and the report now prints the entire letter.
However, it starts the body of the letter on the 2d page, so the letter
header shows up on page one, followed by a mostly blank sheet. Is there
a way I can get the body to start on page one?

Sounds as if you should take a look at the KeepTogether properties of
various Sections. You might also check the ForceNewPage property.

If playing with KeepTogether and ForceNewPage doesn't cure the symptoms,
post back here with additional information about what you have and what the
settings are.
