Hi Everybody,
I have used page protect property for an repeating frame.
Can I know the element in the repeating frame has been pushed into next page or not? (in the margin of the previous page)
Please let me know, if I'm not clear in explaining my problem.
Thanks in adv,
Vamsi

As I understand it, Page Protect property will do the opposite: move ALL THREE records to the new page. This is what Report Builder says:
| Quote: | YES: If the contents of the object cannot fit on the current logical page, the object and all of its contents will be moved to the next logical page.
For a repeating frame, the first instance of the repeating frame must be able to fit on the same logical page. Otherwise, the Page Protect condition is not satisfied. For any layout object other than a repeating frame, Yes means the object must be able to format entirely on the same logical page.
NO: Object may be split across subsequent logical pages
|
Are those records that huge that they don't fit the page? Perhaps you could use smaller font to preserve space 
Could you play around with other objects? What happens if you set the Page Protect property of enclosing frame (not! repeating one) to YES?
Oh, right ... calculating records size: if it was a Courier font (or any other fixed one), perhaps you could do something about it ... but, using a proportional font and possible variations in record shape, I'm not sure you'll be very successful.

Repeating frame will work differently
Please check the restrictions section
| Quote: | For repeating frames, Page Protect refers to each instance of the repeating frame. Each instance of the repeating frame and its enclosed objects will be kept together by Page Protect.

Still I'm not clear. Seems I don't know how to describe my problem.
Anyway I don't want to stop pushing that. I just want to know that the record has been pushed or not.
Edit:-
Found that the format trigger fires twice, if the page protect property is Yes and the record has not been fit in the previous page.
Format trigger
But I didn't get how to differentiate the trigger call. Any idea will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Vamsi
