If you have a stream of records grouped by a control fields (e.g. invoice number) that you want to output with one REPORT FORM command this seems to work.

Create a report using that 11X17 printer, landscape, and say it has 2 columns of 8.5". Use the oolumn header and footer instead of the page header and footer.

Specify the control field as a data grouping and specify that you want a new column each time the group changes.

When you do the REPORT FORM command you should print 2 up unless you have an odd number of forms, when you'll waste half the sheet on the last one.

This worked in a preview window with a very limited data sample, so your mileage may vary!
Anyone who does not go overboard- deserves to.
