= SUMMARY =

When summing fields that are not in the printable area of the report in the Microsoft Works Database module, these same fields will not appear in the Clipboard when Copy Totals is chosen from the Edit menu.

The printable area in a report is marked by both a hollow triangle over the first field name, and a hollow triangle over the first field name that will not print; all fields in between will print. To get as many fields as possible into the Clipboard after you choose Copy Totals, do the following:


 * 1) With the report open, choose Page Setup from the File menu.
 * 2) Select Wide orientation (landscape). This is the icon on the right, under the word “Orientation.”
 * 3) Depending on the column width and the number of fields in the report, enter a number in the box labeled Height. In Wide orientation, the value in the Height box determines the width of the document from left to right.
 * 4) Click OK.

After completing this procedure, more of the totals will show up in the Clipboard.
