The report is a description of a museum collection. It has about 15 fields laid out to print a report around 3" wide (hence the option to have 2 columns) and from 4 to 8 " long. We print 100's of these and so maximising the number on a page is important. Some fields have 'print when' clauses and some are laid one on top of t'other using txtwidth() to position one object after another in a different font. Happy to scrap 2 columns and stick to one. But I do not want the report ("label") to flow onto next page. The reporter ought to know how long the next item will be and thus whether to throw a page. I have tried drawing an invisible box (KB article suggests to use invisible line to push Labels down after floating field). Maybe some type of data group?
