Add Blank Page

I have a report that is grouped by employee. The report lists the
training each employee has taken. What I want to do is have a page
with just the employee's name and some lines that can be used for
writing comments to print after the last page of data for the employee
is displayed. So, if page 1 and page 2 have employee training data,
page 3 will just have the employee's name and than a bunch of blank
lines.
Any help is appreciated.

One way of doing it is to add a table control at the bottom of the
report and have the employee's name as the detail record. Then right-
click the top-left corner of the table control >> select Properties >>
select the General tab >> below 'Page breaks:' select 'Insert a page
break after this table.' Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply Enrique
When I add the table to my report, it ends up printing after all of
the employees have printed. What I want to happen is:
Page 1 = employee one detail records
Page 2 = employee one detail records
Page 3 = employee one detail records
Page 4 = notes page for employee one
Page 5 = employee two detail records
Page 6 = employee two detail records
Page 7 = notes page for employee two
The notes page will just have the employees name and than a bunch of
lines for note writing.
Thanks for any help. Mark.|||On Nov 13, 12:30 pm, Mark <mark...@.gmail.com> wrote:

You're welcome. The best way to control this is to pass the dataset
into the report in the format that you want to display it in. I'm not
sure how you would have a page break in this scenario though (aside
from possibly passing in empty records). Otherwise, you can underline
the field by: selecting the table row on the left >> right-click and
select Properties >> in the Properties tab, select BorderStyle >>
select the Drop-down list to the right of Bottom >> select
<Expression...> and enter something like:
=iif(Fields!ExtraColumn.Value = "Notes", "Solid", "None")
Where ExtraColumn is just that, set to either something like:
"Details" or "Notes". So in this expression if the extra field ="Notes", then set the bottom border to solid, else set it to none (or
invisible). Hope this helps.
