Cathy - I downloaded your 2 articles and the sample code quite some time ago. Now for the first time I'm trying to make the pagination work per your sample but although it runs OK I am still getting a group split over 2 pages. Was there an errata or problem with the code originally posted?
I did notice a couple of spots where the code was different than that shown in the article. But it doesn't work either way.
Thanks

>>I have a report with a tall detail band of about 1/4 page height. Thus after the headers I normally get 3 records per page. If some of the data associated with the early records causes the controls to stretch, it forces a portion of the last record to split and run over onto the next page. I'd like to avoid this behaviour and start a new page if there is not enough room for the entire record. Any ideas on how to do this?
