Hold the mouse button down on either the Body part label or the
dividing line at the base of the Body part and pull it downwards (don't
go too far off the bottom of the window if you've got a fast scrolling
computer, otherwise you can end up fif* pages down before you know
it!) and you'll get more room in the Body part. You can pull the body
part down as far as you like, but it does mean that the printout will
be num ber records x number of pages long.
There should be a page break line across the layout which you need to
be careful to avoid putting text/fields/etc. on top of otherwise they
can be clipped or appear half on the first page and half on the second.
The can be especially difficult if your merge fields can contain lots
of text that might push other text onto/over the page break.
If the second page isn't going to change for each record (ie. no merge
fields) then a better option would probably be to print one page from
you word processor and photocopy it and use FileMaker just to print the
first page that does change with each record.
