Michael,

If you are not afraid to "dirty" your hands hacking .frx file, there is a COPIES statement in the first expr filed of the first record. You could set that to the number of copies you want to have printed. It is faster than what you do because the report does not have to be redone which is time consuming. It also less flexible because the number of copies can only be set at design time which to my shame is a severe limitation of course :).

If you do adopt this solution, make sure you erase the TAG and TAG2 field of the same record.

HTH,

Marc

If things have the tendency to go your way, do not worry. It won't last. Jules Renard.
