I'm working on some reports in PL/SQL and for some reason they're printing with no pages breaks.
Can anyone help me out here... I'd like to be able to insert a "form feed" character/function/command into the page footer procedure so as to allow a page break and start printing on the next page.

Any help would be appreciated!!

Sweetness,
Mer.

Thanks for the repy.

I will try that. I found out the chr(12) also does a form feed... but it's inserting an extra line on the next page before it starts printing the rest of the text.

It's confusing I tell you.

I am not a PL/SQL guru, but if you can use chr(12) instead of some built-in switches (i.e. -F, etc.), then you can just insert a combination of Chr(10) and Chr(13), one being the line-feed and the other - carrett return. They have always been language independant as long as the platform is ASCII compatible, I'm sure yours is :)
Good luck
