>>>>We're still printing invoices in a manner that I guess would be called the "old way"... On pre-printed multi-part forms that have company logo, return statement on the bottom of the page, etc. When there are enough line items on an invoice, it throws a message at the bottom of the report form down into a pre-printed area, thus making a mess. Of course, when there are sufficient line items to cause the report to spill over into a 2nd page, this alleviates the aforementioned problem because there is usually enough room left on page 2 for the message to get printed without interference. The Page Setup of the Report is for standard letter-size 8 1/2 x 11 paper. Is there a way to keep this from occurring? TIA, CH.

Oh! I think I see what you mean now... just make the page footer of sufficient tallness (even though it's blank) so that it will take up enough room to cause a succession to page 2 once the report form hits a certain point.
