Inserting Page Breaks into a non-word created document
Are there any scripts, or a way for me to insert page breaks into a non-word created document based on a pattern or page lines ?
What I am trying to do is print out a report from a database, and to tell Word when to start a new page after each record. The report is really too large to manually go in, and insert the page breaks myself. I was wondering if someone knew of an easier way to accomplish this ?

If you can explain how a new record would be identified, it would be
possible. Are you sure however that the report in the database cannot be designed to insert the page break automatically. -- Hope this helps.

I keep coming across this same post on several groups:
It's bad form to post separately to multiple groups. Instead use cross-posting, and indicate in the text that you have done so. Then an anwer in one group shows in all the groups and those reading don't have to keep seeing the same new message over and over when it's not new. Just put the address for all of the groups you want to pose to in the box, separated by commas or ";". Pop "InformixDan" wrote in message ...

Thanks Doug for responding. Will Word recognize a page break from another report ? I was under the impression it had to be created in Word. Hmm...maybe I'm approaching this from the wrong angle.

Dan has confirmed elsewhere that a mail merge serves his purposes.
