Print Format

In the Detail section, is there any way to force the
second record to print immediately after the first
record? There are two fields that are very lengthy, and
one field that has a name. I'd like to see the names
listed one right after the other. The second name is
listed after the long fields and it doesn't look good on
the printout.

Example of what it looks like now:
Date Time Description Name
m/d/yy hh:mm xxxxxxxxxxx xxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx
xxxx

I'd like to see the second name just below the first name,
next to the Description.
As always, thanks for your help!

Are you saying that all the records have the same
description? If so, then you should have the records
grouped on the date/time field and place the description
controls in the group header section.

After that arrangement is properly organized, you can make
the details with the name move up beside the descriptions by
using a line of code in the group header section's Format
event:
Me.MoveLayout = False
