Hello, here is my question: whenever I print a report (usually 40-100
pages long) sometimes the sum of one field (e.g.sales) will go over the
next page and the total will appear on that next page but I will loose
the field Name so I will not know from which field that total is coming
from unless I go back one page and see it on that page.

e.g.
Cars $34.444
$65.665
$45.546
----------jump to next page--------
$23.3453
$45.563
Total: $4352345

I will like to see the "Cars" field again when ONLY this happen on the
next page, like:

Cars $34.444
$65.665
$45.546
----------jump to next page--------
Cars $23.3453
$45.563
Total: $4352345

Please help, thanks
 
If you are grouping by the "Cars" field, you can set the group header's
repeat section to Yes.
 
How do I do that? I am guessing is in the Sourting and Grouping>Group
header "Yes". That's what I did and still showing me the reports the
same way. Any clues?
 
Did you place the Cars" field in the group header and then set the Repeat
Section property of the Cars field header to Yes?
 
Yes, I think you do not understand my question. I know what that option
does. It will put the name of each field under that category group. But
my question is when the results past to the next page, the header
category will not past to the next page, so you have to go back to the
previous page and see the name of that group/category.

I tried using a Text Box and then set the Control Source to whatever
the field name is and then I put this under the Page Header so I will
show it everytime I pass to the next page. But this is not very usefull
because sometimes I get the same name repeated twice. I was wondering
maybe using an If statement but I really do not know

Any help or comments please let me know
 
I don't think you understood my suggestion. If you set a group header's
Repeat Section property to Yes, it will display the group header contents
after a page break.

I never suggested you use the page header section.
