We have a datawindow that takes on a ton of Modify statements depending on how much data is in a certain record. We fixed the code so that data doesn't straddle pages in print preview, but when we send it to the printer or to a PDF, there is a bit of page straddling (say, some data prints near the footer of page 4 and the rest prints near the header of page 5). Any advice you folks can give is appreciated.

Have you tried to set 'print preview' on and see how the dw looks?

.Object.DataWindow.Print.Preview='Yes'

(Just a thought).

Not sure if it applies in your case, but if you are using a nested datawindow which straddles 2 pages, this will push it all to the 2nd page:

dw_report.modify("DataWindow.PushCutControlToNextPage=yes")
