You know, that's a great idea.  Except that in my case there are TWO
breaks.  It makes sense for the first break to be on a separate page,
but not the second break -- there's way too many of those 2nd breaks.

So even if the first break was on a separate page, I would still have
a problem where the 2nd break could span pages.

Yeah but this is DOS.  I know that they're planning a DOS version, but
I'm sure it'll be way behind the release of the Windows version.

It'a a good thought.  I'll dial in to my client and try that.  Since 
it's DOS there's no important formatting in the report, so printing to a
file and copying to the printer would work for me!  I'll let you
know if it works.  Wait a minute, if I print to a file with a 0 page
length, but I wouldn't get any page headers, would I?  I'll have to see
if that would bother her.  But anyway, it'll be a good test.

I remember seeing code to do that.  Got it somewhere I think.

Dos version, 6.5++, 1.842.  I could have sworn that was fixed a long
time ago, too.
