Set Page Breaks
A break column is a column that defines a page break. When the value of a column changes, a data break occurs. In Form type reports, a data break occurs on each row. In Tabular type reports, a data break may occur on any number of columns.
A data break always results in a page break. However, in Tabular type reports, page breaks may occur without data breaks if there are sufficient detail rows to fill the table field. You can determine where page breaks occur in a report by setting page breaks.
To add a page break (break column)
1. Create a data field or select an existing data field.
For more information, see How You Can Create Data Fields (see How You Can Create Data Fields).
2. Click Tools, Properties.
The Reporter DataField Properties dialog appears.
3. Click the Is a Break Column toggle field.
4. Click Save.
