    Article: Forcing a Page Break
    ---------------------------------------------

    Question:

    How can I force a page break occur based upon
    a condition calculated at run-time.

    Solution:

    Define a Group that starts on a new page when
    it breaks. Then use the Group.OnGetBreakValue
    event to control the timing of the break.

    1. From the Report Designer, select Report | Groups
    to access the Group dialog.

    2. Define a group based upon a static component,
    such as a Label or Variable. Click the
    Start new page checkbox. Close the dialog.

    3. Using the object inspector's drop down list,
    find and select the TppGroup object.

    4. Create an event-handler for the Group's
    OnGetBreakValue event.

    5. Add code to set the break value.


    procedure Form1.Group1OnGetBreakValue(Sender: TObject; var aBreakValue:
    String);
    begin

    if condition then
    aBreakValue := 'Some Value';

    end;
