I want to print the contents of a text box on a form to a
report, formatted with margins etc, when the user presses
a button on the form. I can get the first page filled
with text but the report does not then start a fresh
page. I cannot find a method for the report to start a
new page.
Am I missing something?

Thanks for any help

Maybe. Access will automatically use as many pages as
needed to display the data in its controls and sections.

How are you getting the data on the form to the report?
(Note that data is only stored in tables, a form is just a
mechanism for interacting with a table.)

Have you set the report's text box and its section's CanGrow
property to Yes?
