If I'm reading the spec right, this isn't quite what I am looking for.
What I probably didn't make clear was that in this example:
(Example #2)
PANEL 1 DATE1 DATE2 DATE3
Test1 result1 result2 result3
Test2 result6 result7 result8
Test3 result11 result12 result13
Test4 result16 result17 result18
PANEL 1 DATE4 DATE5
Test1 result4 result5
Test2 result9 result10
Test3 result14 result15
Test4 result19 result20
PANEL 2 DATE1 DATE2 DATE3
Test5 result21 result22 result23
Test6 result26 result27 result28
Test7 result31 result32 result33
Test8 result36 result37 result38
PANEL 2 DATE4 DATE5
Test5 result24 result25
Test6 result29 result30
Test7 result34 result35
Test8 result39 result40
those are all on one page. (If I left it so that all 5 date columns were in the same "row", it would spill out onto a page to the right -- something we want to avoid). "Vertical" page breaks are ok (and I already have code to handle that), but we want the layout on a page to look like the above so that we don't have "horizontal" page breaks.
Does that make any more sense? (I've struggled with this for a while, so I know it's hard to explain clearly.)
