Record Breaks

I have a report that prints out records according to a query which promps for user specified criteria. The records may be inconsistent in length and complexity, and need to print continuously without page breaks. The problem I'm experiencing is that when a record starts toward the bottom of any given page and it is too long for that page, the report will split the contents of the record and continue with it on the next page. This becomes confusing when you are trying to read a record on a page and half of it is on the previous page, or the next page as the case may be.

Is there a property which allows the report to recognize that a record is going to exceed the page length and then automatically start it on the next page?

Thanks,
K. Sparks
