I am making a report that will be exported as PDF and printed.  How can I force the report to go to a new page after a certain block or object?

For example each printed page will be for a customer.  I need to make sure that there is never two customers data on one page.

Try using a pageset. That will create a page for each row in the associated query.

Remember to use a master/detail relationship in any object (list, crosstab, graph) inside the page.

just realized i never replied back to this.  Thank you.  Page set worked perfectly.  I did the following...

1. Created a new List Report with grouped query items.
2. Go to Report Pages.
3. Add a Page Set.
4. Set the Page Set Query property to the list query.
5. Open the Page Set Grouping & Sorting property.
6. Add the grouped Query item to the Grouping folder in the left pane and click OK.
7. Back in Report Pages, drag the original page (default Page1) to the Page Set Details folder.
8. Run the report.
