Steve These marks on the report screen do not mean what you think - it means keep the HEADER ITSELF together: if there is not enough room for the HEADER lines on the current page, go to the next page.
What you want is to tell R:Base: "if there is not enough room for the ENTIRE BREAK SECTION: header / detail / footer on this page, don't print - start on the next page. Under 6.5++, you have four choices: 1. Create a form feed for each break - each new group starts on a new page - easy to do on the Breakpoints screen 2. Live with it as is 3. With a minor change, you can repeat the break header on the next page with the words "continued". If interested in details, ask and I'll provide. 4. With a LOT of trouble, you CAN create a complex set of variables on the report and calling program to do what you want to do. I can send a sample if you want. OR, wait for 7.0 where it will be easy!!
