I'm trying to make sections at Word 2016 with Nex Page Breaks and I need to insert images (aka figures for APA Style), and I need to include caption on them.
Caption is auto generated, but at some points, when I insert the next page break, the Caption numeration is screwed, like figure 5 is figure 6 and figure 6 is 5 (and that is reflected at my Figures Index).
I have tried normal break, using top and bottom selection on pictures, but it does not work.
What should I do?
Thanks!.

I'm trying to add page breaks to an excel sheet, but am having trouble getting the page breaks to go where I want them, or more accurately, to not go where I don't want them.
I want the code to insert a page break to the left of column "x," with x being a previously defined variable (7 in this case). I can get the page break at column x to work, but another page break (a dashed blue line) keeps showing up left of column 6, and another one (a solid blue line) left of column 8.
The method that I am using to add the page breaks is this:
Worksheets("BASE 2").VPageBreaks.Add Before:=Worksheets("BASE 2").Columns(x)
ActiveWindow.View = xlPageBreakPreview
If I only run the ActiveWindow.View = xlPageBreakPreview section, the two incorrect page breaks (before columns 6 and 8) still show up, and the same thing happens when I run the code with only the Worksheets("BASE 2").VPageBreaks.Add Before:=Worksheets("BASE 2").Columns(x) section.
If anyone has any insight as to why this may be happening, I would greatly appreciate it.
For anyone in the future that has a similar problem.
The reason that excel was adding in the extra dashed page break was that the section I was trying to print was too large to print on one sheet. I was originally trying to print a section with a total column width of 300 zoomed at 50% using Worksheets("Sheet1").PageSetup.Zoom = 50.
To fix the problem, I backed off the column width to 290 and the zoom to 40 and the dashed blue line stopped showing up.
I uncheck "Allow row to break across pages" for a table's properties So, the table is shown on a new page to ensure that all the content is on one page, this works fine. But Word generates a blank space before the page break, I need to replace it with some text for a legal reason. I can't use a watermark or shapes because un Oracle BI Publisher only prints it on PDF and I need to export it to a docx.
The data is dynamic, so sometimes the text before the table and the text inside the table may change.

I need some like this https://imgur.com/a/ySitL
MS Office support told me that it can't be done with Word...
Maybe with VBA code?

Thanks Cindy for your help.
I have a table into another table many paragraphs, checkbox etc and they are fitting on a new page. It's working.
I understand there isn't a page break.
It's Paragraph mark.
But what I need to do is insert a kind of mark, a text like XXXX,-----------, Instead of leaving "free space",
It's a requirement not change the font size or another text format.
For a legal requirement, some paragraph must fit on a new page and "blank spaces" replaced by a kind of mark.
I can't hard code it because in several cases not all the paragraphs or section in a page will be shown and I don't know by default when a new page is needed.
I am available to use macros or anything.
What you could do is insert a page-size table into a textbox in the page header and format the body text with a white background. The table will thus be hidden behind any text on the page, but not otherwise (provided you don't pad unused space with empty paragraphs, etc.).
After exporting report in PDF format I realized that a few rows were hidden. As you can see in the image:
Notice that the 1st row in the second page is not the next row fetched by the data set, which should actually be 10 January 15 03:00.
Also, there's no Page Break, instead the default layout comes from the Master Page which is US letter.
I've been trying different solutions for this problem and after checking
M Williams and James Jenkins suggestions (among others) I still couldn't find it.
Perhaps Dominique could help? Dom?
The large blank space we can see below this table suggests there is a fixed margin or something like that which prevents all rows to be displayed. What is the value of the "Page break interval" property of the table? By default it is 40, try to decrease it until all rows are displayed in PDF. Otherwise you need to find out which element of the report has a fixed height or margin, This blank space might also be due to a property of the master page such margins and footer size
I am using SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 - I have created a portrait A4 report 8.5in by 11in.
The report consists of a header, body and a footer.
The body consists of a number of textboxes in a 2 column layout and underneath them a matrix placed onto a list.
The matrix consits of 2 fixed rows (with 1 fixed textual column in the top row and 2 dataset field columns in the bottom one) and a number of columns (each with a width of 0.875in and data taken from different dataset fields). I use the group expression =Ceiling(RowNumber(Nothing)/5) on the list, to make the matrix columns start below the previous ones every 5 repeated columns.
The problem I am facing is that a blank page (with only header and footer) is appearing between every page of report data when I export the report to PDF or print it physically, if the matrix spans more than one page of data. There is plenty of room for the columns of the matrix on the page. I have tried the following, but to no avail:
1) I checked that Page Width (8.5in) >= Body Width (7.20833in) + Left Margin (0) + Right Margin (0)
2) I checked that Page Height (11in) >= Page.TopMargin (0) + Header.Height (2in) + Body.Height (6.60417in) + Footer.Height (0.89583in) + Page.BottomMargin (0)
3) I played around with various margin values, ranging from 0in to 0.5in for the left, right, top and bottom margins.
4) I set all textboxes' CanGrow property to false. This also has the undesirable effect of chopping out the text when it cannot fit, but even so, the blank page problem still occurs.
5) I placed the list and the matrix together in a rectangle with the blank space (to the right of the matrix) outside the rectangle.
The only thing that stops the blank pages from appearing is changing the list grouping expression to =Ceiling(RowNumber(Nothing)/2), i.e. make the matrix start a new "table" every 2 repeated columns (rather than 5). This, however, I do not understand, as there is plenty of space for 3 other columns to their right and it is odd and untidy to just put 2!!
I would greatly appreciate any help in this!
Thanks in advance!

For anybody who is having a similar problem in SSRS 2008, I found the only way to fix this was to set the property named ConsumeContainerWhitespace on the Report itself to true.
In my case the issue was that the matrix on the page was narrow in design mode with a lot of whitespace to the right. When rendered, the matrix was rendered much wider (due to the data) but the renderer would also include the whitespace, causing the report to be much wider than the actual page.
If you set this property, the extra whitespace does not get rendered.
If I understand you correctly I've solved this problem before. The matrix claims extra white space, the solution I used is as follows:
You need to consume the white space.
[-------page width------]
[matrix][-textbox hack-]
I think you can set the textbox to be invisible
Note: When I attempted this in 2005, it only worked when the invisible textbox spanned the entire line.
I have 4 stacked textboxes in the body of an SSRS report and am getting a stray space / extra line between textboxes 3 & 4.
This is for an address block - name / title / email / website. Can't put it in a single textbox with intervening vbcrlf tokens because the email and website are links. I've tried formatting it to remove vertical spacing; also calculated the exact position by taking top + height to calculate the position. And of course I've tried positioning it so there are exactly 0 pixels between the text boxes. If I reverse the position of #3 & #4 the rendering looks the same so it isn't stray formatting characters in the data fields.
The solution is to wrap the stacked boxes in a rectangle.
I had this problem as well. It blew my mind until I started over on another part of the form. The new boxes worked perfectly until I moved them to the right of another set of text boxes which had some word wrap in them. I realized the wordwrapped boxes were directly related to the gaps I was seeing the set of textboxes to the right. I guess there's some kind of poor markup going on that tries to line things up horizontally and enclosing the set of textboxes in a rectangle protects them from it.
good idea on putting the info into a table - jumping off that idea - I'm going to construct a dynamic string in my query and output the dynamic string into a textbox. thank you for the idea, I don't know why I didn't think to do that.
Simpler thing is to just check text alignment - the default is "default" which appears to be centered. Changing the text box to the right to "left" fixed this problem for me.
Reduce padding property of the textbox.
Once dragging the textbox one closer to the other the tooltip shows convergence points between two textboxes - make tooltip show 0 points
it is best I could do to control the spacing
