Hi Behnaz

There was recently a similar question on the list. The sugested answer was
using the title command:

TITLE "".

(see: http://listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0709&L=spssx-l&P=R22376)
This should give you a page breake.

Another possibility would be to use a script and call the script through
syntax.
This has the advantage that the page break belongs to a visible object in
the output (and does not waste space).

copy the following script to 'yourPath' and name it Add_PageBrake.sbs.

in the syntax file you envoke the script with the following code:

* This belongs to the syntax file.
Acrtivate the script by using the following syntax
SCRIPT file="C:\yourPath\Add_PageBrake.sbs".




* This belongs to the script file.
Option Explicit
Sub Main

Dim objOutputDoc As ISpssOutputDoc
Dim objItems As ISpssItems
Dim objitem As ISpssItem
Dim i As Integer

'Acrtivate the script by using the following syntax
'SCRIPT file="C:\Programme\SPSS\Scripts\ChangeViewer\Add_PageBrake.sbs".

Set objOutputDoc = objSpssApp.GetDesignatedOutputDoc
Set objItems = objOutputDoc.Items()

i=objItems.Count

Set objitem = objItems.GetItem(i -1)
With objitem
.PageBreak = True
End With

objitem.Deactivate
Set objitem = Nothing
Set objItems = Nothing
Set objOutputDoc = Nothing

End Sub

Hope this helps, Christian

Hi Jon,

Thank you for sharing your .sbs script file, however the page break gets
deleted when I remove all logs and wondering if you have a suggestion?

Background: when I remove all logs using SPSSINC MODIFY OUTPUT syntax (see
below) and then run the OUTPUT EXPORT syntax (see below) the symbol ">>"
still appears in the Output navigation pane, but the page break is gone when
opening the subsequent .doc file. However, if I run the OUTPUT EXPORT syntax
with EXPORT=ALL, then it correctly keeps the page breaks BUT IT KEEPS ALL
the ugly command syntax too.

Wondering if you have a suggestion?
FYI, Title and Subtitle are no good because only allow 60 characters each,
so I'm using the TEXT command instead, and this remains visible after
removing the logs, but the page breaks do not remain after removing the
logs.

*Remove log text.
SPSSINC MODIFY OUTPUT LOGS  
/IF
PROCESS=ALL
/REPLACE ITEMS
/VISIBILITY VISIBLE=FALSE.

* Export Output.
OUTPUT EXPORT
  /CONTENTS  EXPORT=VISIBLE  LAYERS=PRINTSETTING  MODELVIEWS=PRINTSETTING
  /DOC  DOCUMENTFILE='K:\CEA\MI\CURRENT PROJECTS\DATA\2021 Continuum
Subscriber Report\03 Report\SPSS Output\ResultsB.doc'
     NOTESCAPTIONS=YES  WIDETABLES=ASIS PAGEBREAKS=YES
     PAGESIZE=INCHES(8.5, 11.0)  TOPMARGIN=INCHES(1.0)
BOTTOMMARGIN=INCHES(1.0)
     LEFTMARGIN=INCHES(1.0)  RIGHTMARGIN=INCHES(1.0).

Thanks,
Chris
