Default Skipping a line by condition

The word Tom.


The lay out is:

Worker {skips line}
{spaces} Tom
George {is next line}

{spaces} {Fred} who is a NonWorker.
NonWorker {Next Header}

I'm sorry I can't send you an attachment. I'd let you look at it as it is
printed.

The way it should look is:
Worker
Tom George

NonWorker
Fred

and so on.

What or who comes before George?

I did as you suggested. Now it shows up as

Worker
Tom
George

Fred {He's a non worker}
Non Worker

Thanks for your help

This is a two column report correct? And PostitionTitle is a Group Header
correct? If those two factors are correct then using the Repeat Section for
the Group Header should keep the names underneath it. So what am I missing?
Are George and Tom records, as in George has a record and Tom has a record?

The group header is the [positiontitle] = the Worker
Tom & George are the workers.

Non Worker
Fred is a non worker.

Maybe I'm missing something?

By the way I have the repeat section set to yes and I still get the report
that looks like I've explained.
Sorry.

Can you zip that database up and send it to me?

I would like to, but my employer will not let me due to sensitive information.


I'll just have to keep playing with it I guess.

When I was using single column the report was correct with everything in
place. It's just when I do two column that it "messes" up.

What I told you should work, so I am guessing something is preventing it
from working. So let's see if we can figure it out... Does every record
contain a name or are you trying to skip lines between each record?

Every record contains a name and a position title. I went through every
records and made sure of that. Maybe this may have something to do with it I
don't know. It starts out with a count of one and no record showing up. I put
a counter in the footer to keep track of the number of position titles for a
particular position.

Everything matches except the Sorting And Grouping. When I right clicked I
selected the Sortings and Groupings. This is what I have.

Group Header: Yes
Group Footer: Yes
Group on: Each Value Note: It only gave two options. The other was: Prefix
Char.
Group Interval: 1
Keep Together: With first detail. Note: The other options: No and with
whole group.

Note: in the page set up, I have it printing Across, Then Down. Should that
be Down, Then Across?

I wanted to thank you for your help and sticking with me to try and figure
this out. It's probably something simple.

I'm using Access 2003 sp3 by the way.
