[libreoffice-users] Base report text fields of variable size

The next question, though, is how do I ensure that only complete
records are printed on a page? I.e. How do I prevent the records being
split between the bottom of one page and the top of the next? 
The 'Force new section' function seems to print only one record per
page.

Cheers
Harvey
