How do you add a page in a report?

    You can use second style sub reports to do that. Remove the header/footer
    from the main report and drop sub reports onto your report. Set them to
    shift relative in the correct order.

    Enjoy.

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

    Question:

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

    2 of the best solutions follow:

    Solution 1:

    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;


    Solution 2:

    1. Place a subreport at the point where you might want a page break.

    2. Remove its summary band and reduce the height of its detail and
    title bands to zero.

    By programmatically setting the title band's NewPage property you can
    conditionally force a page break. Note that everything after the
    subreport that is in the same band with it will need to
    ShiftRelativeTo the subreport.
