How to print a page in between of every report page?

[Brian Hawks]

I'm fairly inexperienced with Access, but I was asked if there would be any way to solve a problem. My company prints product invoices using access reports. Terms and Conditions pages are now required to be put on the back of said reports. The detail section of the report prints a list of all of the items on an invoice, and sometimes they take up more than one page. I have been trying to use a subreport containing the terms and conditions page and setting it visible and invisible whenever an invoice page ends. The problem I am now having is that one item of the invoice is put under the terms and conditions page because the subreport and the item are in the same detail band if I use the subreport's force new page, and if I use a manual page break in my main detail section a new page is created, but no information from the rest of the items is shown. Is there any other way I can accomplish this?

You might try adding a group based on the invoice number and put the Terms and
Conditions in the group footer. Set the group footer to print on a new page
by setting Force New Page property to Before Section.

That would work, but only for the end of each invoice. I should have clarified that I need the terms and conditions to be printed behind EACH page of the invoice. That is why I was assuming I would have to put something in the detail section, since it is the section that is creating the new pages. Any other ideas I could try?

Sorry, nothing comes to mind.

I thought about using the page number with Mod 2 and using that to print the
terms page, but that would probably fail since you have a sub-report printing.

Something like
Private Sub Report_Page()
If Me.Page Mod 2 = 0 Then
Me.txtTerms.Visible = True
Me.cPageBreak.Visible = True
Else
Me.txtTerms.Visible = False
Me.cPageBreak.Visible = False
End If
End Sub

Perhaps ;you can find a way to redesign the report so it is not using a
sub-report. It is often possible to get the same printout results using
grouping and sorting instead of using a sub-report.
