Red face Have a question concerning counter

The counter as it is works just fine, but as my labels print out over more than one page the counter skips a number.

Why is this?????????????????

Try looking at your top/bottom margins.

The report may be able to fit 12.5 labels per page. It's incrementing
the counter for that half label, but not printing it. If the page break occurred in the space between two labels, it MIGHT take care of your problem.

Question Me No Comprende

Hi,

I think I understand what your telling me, but I can't seem to get it to work properly.

The labels are 4" x 1.5" on a roll. Whatever I do with the page properties, I won't work. The labels look fantastic, but with wrong counternumbers. The counter works fine when printing more than 1 label on a bigger page.

What to do???

Michael,

Sorry I'm slow getting back to you. Been away from the PC for a
few days....

I'm a little confused myself, now.
If you're printing labels on a roll, at what point is the page break occuring?
Have you inserted a page break control in the report for some reason?
Does your report contain any VBA that could be causing this problem?

Cool Sorry i'm late

No VBA and no Pagebreaks are added.

Still the program counts 2 numbers on 1 label.

Mike

Any chance you can attach your work? The answer will probably jump
out at me if I can look at your report.

Hi, here's the database including the reportlabel.

I hope you can fix it. I have a labelprinter "Eltron TLP 2742".

I got it to work.

Deleted the page break on the report.
Turned on page header/footer.
In the page footer's OnFormat event, I added code to subtract
1 from the counter.
