OK, if two rows fail as you describe then more conceptual alternatives would be worth exploring.

I think the easiest alternative is to rotate the page to landscape, turn everything in the table cells 90 degrees. This will ensure both cells are populated before the nextRecord is reached.

Perhaps using a frame for the lower text would work if each frame was anchored to the first paragraph in the cell

Another alternative would be to slide on over to Microsoft Access to create the report
