Re: Printing records from the database
Revolution allows you to build printable areas as large or as small as you like, so you'd just have to design a card so that it wasn't too large for your paper. (This may have to be done by trial and error a couple of times, but then it will work properly from that point on.) Hi Ken, I need to print statements. I understand I need to set up a card as a template and then put in the info via SQL(from my PostgreSQL db) each statement for a different customer. How would be the best way to do that, that I should have them all in one print ? The amount of statement amount varies .

Well, you could set up a field on the stack that is multi-column, and put the statement information into the field using tabs to separate the columns of data. If the data was longer than would fit on a single card (one that was sized appropriately, say 8x10), you'd have to calculate where to separate the data and put it on another printing card and then print them to the printer.

Printing records from the database
Hey My name is Marko Manninen and i just downloaded the trial version of Revolution because i needed to examine if it's going to be my developing tool for some projejects. After reading database faq i still didn't get answer to my biggest interest. Is it possible to print all records ( two records in one paper) straight from the database in Revolution v 2.xx? I need to put information in card like in to traditional form. Other question is, if it's possible to print to the custom sized paper from the revolution (from the database records)? And what is the procedure with both printing cases? Thanks, Marko ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Hey, Marko - welcome to the Revolution List! After reading database faq i still didn't get answer to my biggest interest. Is it possible to print all records ( two records in one paper) straight from the database in Revolution v 2.xx? I need to put information in card like in to traditional form. The short answer is yes, but the longer answer is what needs to be done in order to get what you're looking for. Revolution has a simple structure for printing sets of cards to the printer, but for a more serious reporting package, we'll have to wait a short time - a third party is in the final stages of a full blown reporting product for Revolution and this will certainly allow you to do what you are asking for more easily. Prior to the reporting package being released, you can do it, but it takes more work to set up and test.
