Is it possible to have a two page form and only print the first page or
second page when needed.?
 
Depending on your design, you should be able to use the File/Print dialog
box
selection to print 1 of 2, or 2 of 2 pages.

But, forms are made for data entry, and viewing... not printing. Better
that you develop a rptPageOne and a rptPageTwo and select either for
printing from your form.

Printing is best done using a report. You could create two reports,
one for each page.

I'm not clear what you mean by "a two page form"...

You've already received great advice about using reports, not forms, for
printed output.

If you are saying that the information you are displaying to your users
requires them to scroll from one page to another, consider using the tab
control. This gives you a way to "stack" pages and gives your users a way
to click on the tabs to see the different parts.

By the way, how is it that you have two pages worth of fields? What's the
underlying table look like? (hint: it all starts with the data...)
