Force New Page for Detail Section not working in XP

I have a report which has various sections: Rpt hdr, Pg hdr, Grp hdr
(contains controls but has visible set false), Detail (record source for
report returns only one row, but detail section contains several subreports)
and Pg ftr. I have set the Force New Page property of the Detail section to
Before Section. This worked fine in Access 97, but now I have upgraded the
database to XP it doesn't work.

This doesn't seem to be a general XP problem - I tried creating a new, much
simpler, report with just a group header and where the record source returned
multiple rows. This worked fine (every detail line appeared on a new page),
so there's obviously something special about this particular report, but I
can't figure out what it is.

Any ideas?
 
Have you tried puting a page break in the details, instead of the force new
page property
 
Yes, I tried that and it worked (I did that while I was waiting for a
response to my post), but I have about twenty similar reports and didn't want
to have to edit all of them. Also I was interested to know if there was an
underlying problem with converting apps from 97 to XP.

Thanks.
