Sorry I didn't explain clearly; I find it very difficult to describe this stuff without including the entire xslt/xml/pdf. Why not flow the content? Well, actually I tried that too. When I couldn't get the flow method to work, I thought it would be easier to attack one problem at a time and using the grouping solution seemed to be the "right" one. It sounds like you're saying I should go with the flow. >If you flowed your content over the page breaks, you could flow your following block naturally without any intervention. When I attempted to do this, the content just ran off the end of the page. I couldn't get it to start a new page. This probably has to do with deeper structural issues with my stylesheet but I'm not sure where to start looking for the problem. >And I also don't understand your requirement in that if, on the last page, you need to break the items at the fifth one, then the >sixth and seventh one will be on the next page, which means it no longer is the last page. What I'm trying to say is that I can fit 5 records plus my content block on a page. So, if there are more than 5 records (there can't be more than 7 because it's the last group and 7 is my group size), put the content block on a new page. I'm not actually breaking up the group, I'm just testing to see if I can fit all the records in the last group plus the content block on a single page. If not than insert a page break and put the content block on a fresh page. Does that make sense? >Sorry ... I really don't find your requirement very clearly stated. Yeah, I'm having a hard time describing it. If you think that this method is not going to work then I'll go back and try again to flow the content. Thanks for the help, Jeremy
