Hi,

<b>Protection against page break for line types </b>

- Double-click on your table node and choose the Table tab page.

- Switch to the detail view by choosing the Details pushbutton.

- Set the Protection against page break checkbox in the table for the relevant line type. Table lines that use this line type are output on one page.

<b>Protection against page break for several table lines </b>

- Expand the main area of your table node in the navigation tree.

- Insert a file node for the table lines to be protected in the main area.

- If you have already created table lines in the main area, you can put the lines that you want to protect again page break under the file using Drag&Drop. Otherwise, create the table lines as subnodes of the file.

- Choose the Output Options tab page of the file node and set the Page Protection option. All table lines that are in the file with the Page Protection option set are output on one page.

Hope it helps.

reward if helpful.

regards,

Sipra

Put your internal inside a table inside the smartform and you could get a page protection option for that.

I Think it's a little too late to answer this topic, but I was searching for this solution and couldn't find it.

Sipra's answer was the closest to the solution i've got but is still confusing.

This is how i did it.

1) Inside your Table Footer (or any place you want to protect page breaking) insert a FOLDER. This folder will have the PAGE PROTECTION option enabled, so you can check it.

2) Drag/Drop all the lines (content) you want to be PAGE PROTECTED inside this folder.
