I'm making a report. But the report has to be longer than
the space allowed in the design view. What can I do to
make a form that is 6 pages long? None of the fields can
grow or shrink. The form is mostly a lot of check boxes
with some text fields.

Thanks for your time and help.

For the report why not insert page breaks (see toolbox)
to break up then, for the form, you could use tabs?

Am I on the right track?

I looked at what you suggested. That will not work. Page
break will break the pages when it prints the report. I
need to increase the design area length in the details
section from 24" to a bigger size or find some other way.

Can you help?

I can not imagine a report design that requires 60 inches of
design space just to hold check boxes. Even if the check
boxes are all one obove another and use 1/6 inch of vertical
space, you could still get over 100 of them in the detail
section (on 2 or 3 pages).

I think there is probably something going on here that you
haven't told us about yet. Another key bit of useful info
is details about the report's record source table/query and
it's fields.
