FM prints blank pages why? - comp.databases.filemaker

I made a test layout with 1 merge field (1 word in length) in the body which I placed at the top of the first page. I made the body 3 pages long. FM prints the first page with my merge field and then prints the other 2 pages which are blank. I have checked using Select All there is nothing on them. How do I stop blank pages printing? Thanks Brad

It should have read Layout mode, select the "Field" in body part, go to the Menu, Format, last item in the list Sliding/Printing you want to check the box to slide up and also check the box X Also reduce the size of the Enclosing Part Lee
