 The Allow page breaks option is always greyed out. If I use 100%

 Maybe this is just the case in koma-script pages?

 Be well,

Sorry for the noise.

Played round and found that had to \usepackage{framed} and then went
single frame. Not realising that double frame is a box within a box.

So it works like that.

Be well,
Charlie

You do not have to load framed manually. Just insert a Box with a simple
frame. Then, in the Box settings dialog, select no inner box (no Parbox or
Minipage). Then you can check allow page breaks. This loads framed
internally.

   Thank you Jürgen,

  It works a treat just as you say. I didn't think to look at the
  Inner box setting to see if there was something that might be
  done there.

I started the box off as a double frame box.

Thank you again,
