PageBreak
ActiveReports 12 > ActiveReports User Guide > Concepts > Section Report Concepts > Section Report Toolbox > PageBreak

You can cause ActiveReports to break to a new page at any point within any section using the PageBreak control. All controls placed below the PageBreak in the section render to a new page.

Caution: It is not recommended to place PageReport control over other controls as it can cause extra page breaks.

Tip: Another way to cause ActiveReports to break to a new page is by setting the NewPage property of a section to Before, After, or BeforeAfter. This property is available on any section except for PageHeader and PageFooter.
