[AccessD] Raising events from subreports

Here's the issue:  I have a report with multiple subreports for individual
parts of the docuent, including detail specific to each subreport and
boiler plate that runs to about 3-4 pages..  Subreports are nested no more
than 3 deep, but I need to find a way to deal with child level subreports
that cover multiple pages.  I'd like to know when that condition occurs,
which I can determine within the Print event of the Detail section of the
subreport by testing overall cumulative height against a maximum number of
twips.  I just haven't found a good way of passing the information back to
the parent form in order to force a page break.  Page breaks don't work in
subreports, so  it has to be done at the parent level, and I'm banging my
head against the problem.
