How can I set up an Access report to print on 3x5 index cards?
Am making a report from a table. I want each record in the report to print
out on a 3x5 index card. I don't want to use a full sheet of anything and then have to separate. I just want each record to print on a 3x5 index card. |

How can I set up an Access report to print on 3x5 index cards?
AFAIK, Access gets its page size definition from the print driver. Define a
printer with the page size in question and use that printer for the report. Make sure your report is redefined to correspond to the defined page size. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no e-mails, please!) "pjmoore" wrote in message ...

I just want each record to print on a 3x5 index card. First, determine if your printer can physically handle 3 x 5 cards -- most of the printers I have had (HP, Epson, Canon, and LexMark) would handle no smaller than 4x6. If the printer can't work with a 3x5 card, it doesn't matter how you would have to set the report. Some of those printers handled a stack of 4x6 cards nicely, but on some others, they had to be fed through an "envelope slot" one at a time. The only success I've had with 3x5 cards on PC printers was with a microperforated sheet of cardstock that contained multiple 3x5 cards -- they had to be separated after printing, which defeats your purpose. In addition to the standard sizes, most printer driver dialogs have a "custom size" box, which allows you to specify the dimensions. Larry Linson Microsoft Access MVP |
