    Page break within a repeating section?

    I have a form that is a giant repeating section, each instance of which spans a couple of pages. I thought I would be able to just add a page break at each appropriate spot within the repeating section, and it would be good. However, when I have placed the cursor where I would like to add the page break, when I go to the Insert menu, the Page Break option is disabled. Is it expected that you just can't add a page break within a repeating section, or is there possibly another reason why it would be disabled? If I place my cursor outside the repeating section, it allows me to add a page break with no problem. I can't think of a logical reason why you wouldn't be allowed to add a page break within a repeating section, but that is what I am seeing. Can anyone shed light on this? Thanks!

    Hi jdogan,

    I have no idea why this isn't working.  Can you repro in a blank new form with only a repeating section in it? What version of IP are you using?
