Is it possible to make filemaker start a new page when the data within the body tag exceeds its own part size and page boundaries.I am currently creating a studio manager for an advertising company and am currently restricted to one page for all my layouts and reports. Any ideas people?::( Oh yeah and im new here, hello everyone tongue.gif

Who is restricting you to one page? A layout can be many pages long. You can pull the bottom of the body part of the layout down as far as necessary and pull the bottom of the field down also. You will want to use sliding to reduce the size of the field to only the necessary size. You may not like what you get since FMp has a bad habbit of spliting the last line of text.

Maximum size for a layout in v6 is 110" by 110"

Cheers guys will give it a go although I have tried pulling the body part down and enlarging the field and it doesnt display any data which exceeds the original page boundaries in preview mode

Just checked it out and max size is only 1100 x 1100, is the only answer to create a layout for each page :

The preview mode only shows one page at a time. You just go to the next page to see page 2 and so on until you seel the last page.
