Grouping data over multiple pages
Posted: Wed Mar 02, 2016 6:14 am
Hi Stimulsoft,
We are challenged with the following problem:
The users want to print out a government specific Tax Submission form which is double sided and will have to be printed with a douplex printer (both sides). Unfortunately the government form is not computer friendly at all so this was my approach: I created a 2 page report with 1 databand on each page linked to the same datasource. I scanned the Tax Form to jpg and used it as a watermark for each side on each page (i could not find any other way to have this form on the page then using watermark as databands don't have this feature). Now if the user prints the Tax form for 1 Client then this works perfectly. However if they want to use a whole list of clients then this is not possible as the following problem arises: Page 1 is printed for all clients in the datasource, then Page 2 is printed for all clients in its respective datasource (both the same data)
My Big question is, can pages (like Page 1 and Page 2) not be grouped together somehow? Or is there another way of handling this problem?
Kind Regards,
Mark Groenewald
