Form Section, Report Section.
You can use the KeepTogether property to print a report section all on one page. For example, you might have a group of related information that you don’t want printed across two pages.
Note The KeepTogether property applies only to forms and reports sections (except page headers and page footers).
The KeepTogether property uses the following settings.

Usually, when a page break occurs while a section is being printed, Microsoft Access continues printing the section on the next page. Using the section’s KeepTogether property, you can print the section all on one page. If a section is longer than one page, Microsoft Access starts printing it on the next page and continues on the following page.
