Working in a very restricted environment, writing reports as allowed by a vendor to complememnt their product, I can only use the layout datawindow to control my output.

I have a problem with text fields (32K+ char.), text objects (labels), and nested reports in the detail band all splitting if they happen to fall at page end, with the top portion printing on the first page and the bottom part on the second.

The documents printing as reports are insurance quotes and binders which are reporting off one contract record so each is a report of just one record with nested reports included. The info being split must usually be legible and understood for the doc to be legitimate and binding.

Using PowerBuilder 7.0 Build 10108, I can't find any control or property to mark fields output in the detail band so they won't print unless the entire field will fit on the page. Can anyone help?
 
Try creating a new Group and select New Page on Group-break option. Then move the fields/columns... into this group band.
