How to create multi-page reports in Access?

Guest

I have to create a 10 page contract. I started to prepare the contract in
"Reports", however, it will not allow me to move the page down any further to
add more of the verbage. Is there another way to do this--maybe exporting to
Word. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Each section of a report is limited to about 22 inches in height. However,
you can have multiple sections.

In report design view, open the Sorting and Grouping dialog (View menu.)

In the dialog, select your primary key field, and in the lower pane choose
Yes beside Group Header and Group Footer. Access adds 2 new sections to your
report. Because it's the primary key of your data, they appear for every
record. You now have enough space to create a report 66 inches tall.

If that's still not enough space, repeat the process on the 2nd row of the
Sorting'n'Grouping dialog, and again on subsequent rows if you need still
more space.
