Pagebreak in a Memo

edited August 2002 in General
Is ther any posibility to make a pagebreak in the middle of a memo if the
user has placed inside the memotext a special character (like )?
Actually i could only make a pageprake on complete obkjects or i use the
automated feature of the memo with dynamic length.

    You could use the JIT pipeline to return the individual memos. This would
    create the effect that you have more detail records, one for each memo. Add
    a field to the JIT pipeline to indicate a record which should start on a new
    page. This way you can have a separate detail band for each memo after the
    page break. You could read through the entire dataset looking for the
    tag and set the JIT pipelines record count property so that is stops. You
    could also just set EOF to true on the JIT if you don't want to go through
    all the records.

    You could also dynamically build the detail band components in the report
    such that it creates memos to print the different parts of the memo on
    different pages. You might want to use the RBAddOnPage break component in
    this case to cause a page break in the detial band between the different
    memos. www.bancoems.com\RBAddOn.htm
