How can I create a conditional break in webi ?

Question

Hello Mister and Misses
Can somebody explain me how i can  create a conditional break , because i want to limit the number of lines to 9 l ines in a bloc
each 9 lines  I want to create a break
Thank you
example  :
1   toto
2   titi
3   taa
4   tutu
5   papa
6   popo
7   tata
8   momo
9   mimi
(break)
10  mumu
17  maxe
18 fax
(break)
19..
My first column is not a dimension  so, i can't manage to make a break
How is it possible to tranform a measure to a dimension in order to make a break  on each  9 lines

Tien,
Try myFile.WriteText('\x0c'); instead of myFile.WriteText('\f');

Thank you, Glen. I tried WriteText. But it didn't work.

Instead of using "WriteLine," try using "WriteText" ("WriteLine" writes
TextData into an open file, while "WriteText" writes data to a stream)
like this:
<method 1>
myFile : file = new();
myFile.WriteText('\f');

Hi,
I am creating a text file for a report which contains multiple pages.
How can I create a page break in my file? I tried to use the
following
two methods, but neither of them works. Specifically, it seems a
special
character printed in the file. But when I print the file through a
WordPad, it didn't separate pages.
I am currently using version 3.0.C on Windows NT 4.0 with a HP Plus 4
printer. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

myFile : file = new();
file.writeLine('\f'); --- \f is the form feed in the C language
<method 2>
myFile : file = new();
j : IntegerData = new( value = 14 );
c : char = j.IntegerValue; -- c now contains ascii 14 (form feed)
p : pointer to char = &c; -- Set a pointer to the character
pageBreakTxt : TextData = new();
pageBreakTxt.Concat(p);
myfile.writeLine(pageBreakTxt);
