Is this possible to do?  It's all well and good to say one will print
so many reports on a given page size, but I'll run into the stumbling
block I've come to realize that that wouldn't mean the individual
reports printed on those pages will come out the desired size if
they're set at a standard 8.5 x 11 page size.  Instead, I'm hoping
that by configuring the total report size to be the target size I
need, that printing x-number of these on an 8.5x11" page will still
have the individual reports conform to that individual size.  But I
haven't a notion on how this report size configuration would be
handled.  If anyone knows, pls pls advise.

Thanks so much. :oD

I'm not sure what you're trying to do here. It appears that you have several small reports (but I suppose there can't be very many of them) that you want to fit onto a single page of printer paper.

If the material for one such report can be expressed in a Query (perhaps as a Crosstab Query), you might find it helpful to use MS Word's "Mail Merge" function to display the results. That would give you lots of freedom in formatting the reports, and you could put several onto one page. For examlpe, think of a page of mailing labels -- you might even use a mailing-label template as the basis for your report.
