<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Perhaps you could put an invisible page break
between each sub-report. Then in the OnOpen event of the report, Dcount
the records in each of the eight sub-reports and estimate the height of the
sub-report from the sub-report's report header plus the number of detail
records. Then make the page break visible to separate the sub
reports.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Of course since one of the fields in the detail
record 'can grow' and does, it's going to be an estimate at best.
Also, this means potentially a lot of white space on a page. Nah, that won't
really work well. You need to know where you are on the page during the
printing of the sub-report and page when it gets close to the
bottom.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Maybe someone else has an idea.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>With my very best regards for you and your
family,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear List:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a report that consists of eight sub
reports. Each sub-report can be of a different length. Each
sub-report has a report header with some descriptive text. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is that the main report page breaks
in odd places sometimes even cutting a line of the subreport in half
horizontally!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I can, of course, insert an invisible page
break between each sub-report and make it visible if I'm close to the bottom
of the page. But I don't know how to know, during the printing of the
sub-report, where I am on the main report.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anybody got any ideas?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
