You might be able to create another data group after the check number that has an expression of INT((LINENO-1)/10) to force a page break. But this depends on what table is driving the report and how you have all your relations set up. Basically .. the concept is that YOU have to create a data group that is based on each 10 lines .. whether it's a formula like above or a field in the data file that you preprocess and fill in is up to you.
