- 1) To force a page break at a specific point during a report select
- Fields/Add/Statement and in the statement entry box enter :--

- lineno = pagelength
-
- NOTE : This statement could also be proceeded by a conditional statement,
- ie:-- if (lineno > ival(FORMLENGTH)) lineno = pagelength
- where FORMLENGTH would be a report filter field.

- that line then select Fields/Add/Statement and in the statement entry box
- enter :--
-
- lineno--
-
- NOTE : Make sure that this is the LAST field marked on the line.
