Form format

[BobDaniel]

Our Income & Expense statement comes in three pages. Page one fills to about 1/3 of the page, page 2 is a full page, and page 3 consist of one line (totals). Normally, of course, page one is a full page and subsequent pages fill as necessary. Someone please direct me to instructions in the manual or help section which explain how to reformat the report. Sometime, I think the instructions are vague or incomplete, and then again I suspect that the reader is a bit dense.

Thanks a lot -

Check to see if someone edited or created an account in Maintain Chart of Accounts and set it up so that the checkbox next to Page Break after Account is checked.

Usually the account last displayed before the page break is the one at fault.

Neil: Thanks for you prompt reply. Following your directions we located an inadvertent check mark which caused the probem and now we have a beautiful Income and expense statement.

Now, if you can get Power Church compatible with the Copy and Paste function, everything will be great. Or, am I also missing something here?

We appreciate your good work.

What are you trying to copy and paste ??

[BobDaniel]

Neil: At times it is desirable to extricate a portion of a report to include in a Treasurer's Report or some kind of correspondence and I can't use copy and paste in any of Power Church's form. In the first place I have found no capability to highlight nor do I find "Copy and paste" or "Highlight" in any of Power Church's instructions. Am I missing something? Hope so. Seems this is the first piece of software I've used which does not include the P&c function, and if P&C does not include this commonly used function can negotiations be made with the developer?

Thanks

Aha ... I see what you're saying. The problem is that the reports function of Powerchurch is an off-the-shelf package (Crystal Reports) that does not integrate the standard Microsoft system cut & paste, and the developers have no control over that.

However, you can save the report to other formats, such as Word or Excel, and you can cut and paste out of those saved files.
