Preventing page breaks with nested sections in a report

Here's a somewhat related question...I have a report with several sections within a parent section.  I've already set a page break to the parent section using a page set grouping...however, when I render, sometimes, one of the child section headers and its corresponding crosstab are broken across 2 pages...leaving the header one the bottom of one page and its crosstab on the top of the next page.  Is there a way to force each section and its header to stay together on the same page.

I've already tried unchecking "allow text to break across pages" and I've also tried setting the enclosing list's box type to block.

Any other suggestions?

Hi there, many years later I'm currently facing similar to this issue, I want that certain section to stay together in the same page or just break that section on the next page as long as they are together, have you solved this issue? attached  is what I am facing

I guess since nosub is the one to totally change the thread topic 17 years ago, I'll leave that alone.  Maybe MFGF will want to fix this.

I see your screen capture, but I don't understand the problem.  Are you saying you want to fit 2 pages of data on one page (no page break)?  Or are you saying you want to push the content from the bottom of page 1 to page 2?

Done! I split out Nosub's original post and the recent replies into this new topic.

Cheers!

Meep!
