>>Yes, the setting is in inches. I have for e.g : 50 records and I want to make one page = 30 records so when the pointer goes to record no. 31, it will go to the next page. For your information I have a page footer.

Why not create an artificial grouping based on a report variable that resets it's value on the start of a new page, and make the variable increment by 1 for each detail line, with a 0 height group header/footer and force the page break when the count exceeds 30. This obviously assumes already that you have an existing data grouping that forces a new page every time the data group changes already, so this is simply a further group layer inside the existing grouping.

Hi Ed,

I did what you've told me, using another grouping (with expression ncount=30) inside the first one but why it didn't print all, for e.g if I have 4 pages, the 1st page was printed, the second was not, the third printed, and the last was not. Did I miss something ?
