Using conditional breaks in repeating subforms

The Using Conditional Breaks Based on Data snippet demonstrates the application of conditional breaks to repeating subforms. As opposed to paginating in response to data overflow, conditional breaks allow you to manually control how a subform breaks in a form based on a series of checks called conditional statements. In this example, three content areas are used to organize the data into three columns when the form is rendered. When the category changes, a break is inserted and the new category starts at the top of the next column.

The conditional breaks are specified in the Edit Conditional Breaks dialog box. To display this dialog box, select the Movies subform object and click Edit on the Pagination tab of the Object palette.
