>>>Hi. I'm relatively new to VFP and its Report Designer. I am working on a system to print "Watch specifications". Since watches are complicated things, the specifications must be broken down into various sub-sections, e.g., Case, Bracelet, Movement, etc., sometimes with 2 or 3 sections printed on a page. My problem is that there is too much data to fit on one page. What can I do to include all of the information necessary, but tell the VFP Report Designer to "page break" at specific lines? Also, where do I put my information, i.e., in the "Detail" band or do I need separate "Group" bands for each section? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
>>>
>>>Thanks in advance.

>>You may group your report by WatchId and select 'start each group with new page', so you will have group footer for each watch and other info will be in Detail band.

>Edward, thanks for your quick response. If I do that, am I supposed to put each section (Case, Bracelet, etc.) in a separate group? If so, what do I use for the "Group Expression" for the other groups after I've used WatchID for the first one?

You may do this, grouping by 2 levels: first- WatchId, second- ItemId (case, bracelet, etc.), but I'm not sure that it's what you want to achieve. It depends on required report layout. My assumption that you may just have several lines in Detail Band:
Group Header
Case ....
Bracelet ...
Something Else ....
Group Footer

All this also depends on data structure.
