You could try the stylesheet coomand OBJECT=BOX.

It is detailed in the documentation, and I think it will work on 7.6.2

Thank you Waz for your reply,
Reason i asked for Frame is, one of the compound report is vary it`s length of the report as per the Parameters, So i want to control using Frame, so that rest of the reports does not mess-up

Thanks

If you create the compound report with document composer you can set the report to fixed under the 'Size and Overflow' property. This will keep the reports size fixed any overflow will be added in the exact same position with the exact same size in subsequent pages.

I don't think this is possible in a PDF document since you can't print a frame on paper. I would switch to HTML format and use the HFREEZE command.

Are you using SET COMPOUND = OPEN/CLOSE ?

If so there is a NOBREAK option that does not pagebreak.
