Thanks for the answers. There are some items where I am still a bit confused. First, I must agree that it might not make sence to render 2 rows into PDF. The problem is, that the user can pick bad criteria and I can not interact with him at that time. As to splitting up the table: J.Piet

Pascal, The number of rows is not a problem in alt-design, with the usual proviso about forward references. Pages are built up as rows are encountered. There may be other valid reasons to break up huge tables into sub-tables, but memory consumption will not be one of them. Peter Pascal Sancho
