I tried to put the info in the summary band and the same thing happened. It prints a given length. Is there a way to add/change paper types?

>Which is why it can't be in the footer...

>Have you tried to put it in a summary band? In the report editor, goto 'Title/Summary' on the Report menu, and check the box. The summary band will float right below the detail (unless you tell it to start on a new page)

>All I put in the foot is summary information such as sub total, tax and grand total. I'm not setting the length of the receipt as it is dynamic based on the number of items on it. If I print the summary as an extension of the detail it works fine, the receipt length is dynamic and all is fine. But when I add it on the footer, it seems to have a hard coded length and wants to print the footer at the bottom of the receipt (report).

>>We are trying to start moving our receipts for our Point of Sale system from @ Say statements to reports for image purposes. I keep having a problem with the length of the receipt. The header prints fine, the detail prints fine, but the footer prints at the end of the receipt, which is about 6 feet long. I've tried to change paper selection on page setup, but nothing seems to be working. If someone else has been through this, any help would be appreciated.
