Blank last page when using "Force new Page" in group footer
Hello,
I've got an access 2010 db that is printing an extra blank page at the end. I'm using "Force new Page" in group footer as each group needs to be on it's own page. Please help.
Thanks

Check your margin settings. I usually put them all to 0.25 and then my page width i can go as far as 8.5 in portrait mode.
Is the last group on it's own page?

It's not the margins. The problem disappears when I don't use "Force new page" after the group. This is a new problem since upgrading to 2010.

Hi Jim,
The last page is totally blank except for the page header and footer. The group footer that is set to "Force New Page after" is also set to not visible.

Not 100% sure about 2010...
But try something like this on Format event of the Group footer:
Private Sub GroupFooter1_Format(Cancel
Dim lngKeyPage As Long
lngKeyPage = Pages - 1
If Page = lngKeyPage Then
Me.Section("GroupFooter1")
End If
End Sub
The Report must be opened in "Print Preview" explicitly in order for this to work

Notes:
1. Not really sure, but set the Visible property of the section back to: True
2. If you need a Grand Total then you may have to add a running sum field and hide it on every page but the last (Key) Page...?

To be clear, this setting makes sure that each group "Starts" on a new page, ...it cant force 300 records (if this is how many records a group has) to magically "Fit" on one page.

try this,
...the Page count is off by one though...
I'm swamped right now, so if another Expert has time to tweak this, or has a more elegant fix, feel free...
