Page Breaks in a Field

[wellings]

This must be a really basic question but ... how do I get the continuous text in a field to flow over to the 2nd page? I have a small client database which I use to send individual letters at irregular intervals (2 or 3 a year, if that). So one (actually 15) of my layouts is a letter.

Because it is an individual letter (not repeated to many clients) I use a field and type in each letter. I use a topic header and topic footer - no problems. I'm happy with this system and everything works fine until I need more than one page for the content of my letter.

I have tried loads of seemingly logical configurations but so far no layout has proved failsafe. Is there a simple command or option that I can apply to my field or record that will automatically carry overflow text to the next page?

Have you tried the following:

Dont just put your text field on the page but put your fields on the page with replacement characters, i.e. just write: "<<FieldName>>"

Have you tried the options in the layout menu in the sector preferences?

Good luck.
