Hum. Sorry I missed that. That did fix the problem with it breaking 
across pages, however, with the changing headers it did not.

I am not certian how to post a minimal example because it looks great on 
the first and second pages, but the 3rd and forth is where it begins to 
mess up. But, what I have is:

@SysInclude {tbl}
@SysInclude {doc}
@Doc @Text @Begin

@DP
Hello, this is a test.

@DP
@Tbl 
 afont { Bold }
 aformat { @Cell A | @Cell B | @Cell C | @Cell D | @Cell E | @Cell F | 
@Cell G | @Cell H }
 bfont { 10p }
 bformat { @Cell A | @Cell B | @Cell C | @Cell D | @Cell E | @Cell F | 
@Cell G | @Cell H }
{
 @Rowa
   A {Due} B {ID} C {Claim} D {Provider} E {Age} F {Charge} G 
{Discount}  H {Pay Out}
   rulebelow { yes }
 @HeaderRowa
   A {Due} B {ID} C {Claim} D {Provider} E {Age} F {Charge} G 
{Discount}  H {Pay Out}
   rulebelow { yes }
 @Rowb
   A {08"/"01"/"2003} B {15005} C {350593390} D {Dr. John Doe}  E {3} F 
{$21163.63}
   G {$6349.09} H {$14814.54}
}
@DP
@End @Text

Except that the @Rowb line is simply copy/pasted enough to give me 4 
pages of information. What happens is that starting on the third page, 
the Due and ID headers have very little space between them, which in 
turn, throws everything else off. Claim is actually over the column ID, 
Provider over the column Claim, etc...

I have posted my new .lout and .pdf on my website, if that's what you 
meant by posting a short example. It has all 4 pages worth of information:

Thank you very much,
