Merging two related sections

There may be times when you have placed objects in two sections (where they print sequentially) and you want to put them all in a single section (where they print simultaneously). You can merge the two sections and then rearrange the objects as needed in the new section.

To merge related sections

1. Click Section Expert on the Standard toolbar.

   The Section Expert appears with a list of all the sections in the report. When there are more than one of any kind of section, the sections are lettered A, B, C, and so on.

   Note:    The program enables only those options (free form, new page before, etc.) that apply to the highlighted section.

2. Move the sections so the two sections you want to merge follow each other in the list.
3. Highlight the top section.

   

4. .With Section (B) highlighted, click Merge and Section (C) will be merged with Section (B) to form one section.

5. Rearrange the objects as needed.
