I am using an invoice image that is preset and a fixed size. I am trying to lay text boxes on top of this image, but the boxes move around differently when you preview and/or print preview. If this is deployed, then the form prints and all of the text box information prints after the invoice image. Has any one experienced this before?

And one more question, is there a way to make a report a fixed length in size, ie, another invoice that might have 1 line or 23 lines and the total always needs to print at the bottom of the report and not move up the page. Is there a way to fix your report to accomodate for that? I have tried list box, matrix, etc and I am unable to find a solution to this.

Any help with either of these questions would be greatly appreciated!!!

Not sure about #1 but for number #2 put the total in a report footer and it should always print at the end.

On #2, it does print at the bottom of the page...If there is only 1 detail line then the total moves up the page and I haven't found a way to force it to the end....

Spirit, what is the new link you moved my topic too? Sorry, I'm new to this and am not sure exactly where to go.

Thank you both for your help!!!
