AW: Page break before an output element

la volta statistics
Hi Jason

I am not sure if a understand you correctly? What is this about the log
turned off?
Try the sample syntax (see below) in which the the page breaks are set just
above a comment, a frequency table, and a chart with the log turned on.
The bothersome titles (such as Frequencies and Graph) that SPSS always puts
in to the viewer, you can prevent with an OMS command.

Christian-

Thanks.  The script works, but it puts the page break before the log, not
the table.  I have the log turned off, but it still shows the page break in
the outline panel.  Part of the problem may be I have the script as the last
statement in a large loop macro that prints a graph and some other analysis
for each subgroup.  The hope was to create a page break for each subgroup's
set of analyses.

Hi Jason

I use a script that I activate with a syntax command. It just adds a page
break to the very last object (chart, table title, etc.) in the output
viewer. So for example: if you want to have a chart on a new page, you just
include the syntax after the chart command. Change the path in the syntax
according to where you store the scrip file.

Hope this helps
Christian

Betreff: Page break before an output element


Does anyone know of a script that will put a page break before a selected
output element (chart, table, etc.)?

I have found one that puts a page break before the text '/page break' in a
table's title, but this is not helpful for charts or other non table
entities.

What about putting
PRINT EJECT.
in the syntax?
