how to generate multiple reports into one pdf file?

i'm now trying to generate Request for Quotation from multiple vendors..
users will have checkboxes to select which vendor they wants..


if users select Both companyA and companyB, i want to have 2 sets of reports (each vendor in 1 report) in one pdf file..

is there anyway to solve this problem?

i couldn't get what exactly mean y multiple report in one PDF. does is it mean that the same report (in same format) for different vendors in single report?
if yes then-

create the the parameter field with multiple value as input so that it will take the all values (vendors selected by user). drop this parameter filed in the report.

lemee know if this what u were looking for......

okay..

currently right now, when user select to print a SINGLE vendor, i'll convert my crystal report to a pdf file.. and this pdf file will consist of 2 pages long.. (there is a header, details and footer..)

but the problem now is, the user is simply too lazy to print one vendor at a time.. they want to print mulitple vendor at one time.. So, i provide them will a list of vendor and let them choose which vendor they want to print.. Then, they'll check on the checkboxes to select the vendor they want. And when they click on the print button, my program will generate all the selected vendors to a single pdf file..

for e.g. 1 vendor will be 2 pages long in one single pdf file.. if user select 5 different vendor, there will be 5 sets of vendor with 10 pages (1 vendor report is 2 page long) long in one single pdf file..

currently, i only can manage to convert one vendor into one pdf at one time..

how can i put all the 5 vendors into a single pdf file?
