This leaves only the floating dynamic Field controls in the Group Footer. This has the appearance of working. That might only be because the reports I've tested no longer overflow with 1/2 the controls moved to the summary. Although the summary band does not get counted as a new page when it prints on another page. More testing to be done.

You might wanna take a look at www.report-sculptor.com
Provided you rebuild your report using form and form controls, it will give you almost 100% control over report content creation.
(You drive report directly from code rather then depending on FRX execution pattern)
RS keeps track of current position of the page in a property, while text can be measured prior sending it to output, so that you can
keep content together in a page, or progress to new page in a controlled manner (by you calling .Eject() method.
There is also way to output multi-page text into a report where text itself is 'driving' report. That running text itself can call RS engine methods to do some graphics or even call another FRX reports from within that text. Etc Etc

See text related RS Demo samples for more ideas.

RS is 100% free
