>I have a report with a memo field placed in the Group Footer band. This memo field is set to 'stretch on overflow'. The report works quite well but yesterday, we had a special case with a very big text in this memo field (the text is a list of serial numbers), the memo stretched like expected but didn't continue on the next page !

There might be an easier way, but...

It seems to me that you should determine how many lines will fit as a maximum, and then count the lines in the memo field. If there are too many, split it into separate records.

You could also use a smaller fontsize for this particular field - mayhap it still fits into a single page.
