Yes, I'm going with Tom's method - its already up and running just fine. Small record numbers so the window flickering isn't a problem.
Controlling via page numbers is not an option in this case, as each record within the region set, has to be sent to one of two printing layouts, and appended to the PDF created for that region.

It's a method I've commonly used to restrain a found set for some purpose and then return to the original set. Simple. No complex requirements like object naming, looping... The only drawback I see is that if the process takes some time you have to put some time into controlling the user interface - unless your users don't care about a bit of screen flickering.
