I am struggling with a particular scenario. I have a flowed subform that repeats dynamically the form can be a single page or can flow to multiple pages. My issue is that as the subform flows across pages 1, 2 and 3 each should have a different master page that it can flow to. It is easy to overflow from page 1 to page 2 I just set the overflow to the second master page, but what if it overflows page 2 how do I set the overflow to a third uniquely formatted master page?

  1. Click the Design View tab.
  2. Select the subform on page 1.
  3. In the Object palette, click the Pagination tab and, in the Place list, select On Page > [page], where [page] is the name of master page 1.

 Is there a way do do this when it is one repeating subform that dynamically spans all three pages?

Trent,

If the max number pages allowed to flow is three, then you can follow the steps below to achieve your goal.
  1. Set the Printing property under Page Set tab of Master Pages to Print on Both sides.
  2. For Master page1 set pagination properties as follows:
  3.                  Placement  --> Only Page (in Page Set)
  4.                  Odd/Even --> No Odd/Even Restrictions
  5. For Master page2 set pagination properties as follow:
  6.                  Odd/Even --> Even (Back) Pages
  7.                  Placement  --> No Placement Restrictions
  8. For Master page3 set pagination properties as follow:
  9.                  Odd/Even --> Odd (Front) Pages
  10.                  Placement  --> No Placement Restrictions
  11. Set pagination property of main page (page1) in Design View to on Page "Master Page1"

NOTE: If your form flows more than 3 pages it will use Master Pages 1 and 2 alternatively.

Find the attachment for the sample I have created. In this sample I used a table to flow across multiple pages.
