Hi!

What I need to be able to do is:

I compose a page with a table on it. In the midle of the page I realize
that the table wouldn't fit and I need another ( right hand ) page to 
continue the table.

|        REPORT              | |                           |
|                            | |                           |
|blah blah blah              | |                           |
|                            | |                           |
|----------------------------- |------------               |
|123 | 123 | 123 | 123 | 123 | | 123 | 123 |               |
|----------------------------- |------------               |    
|                            | |                           |
|End of report.              | |                           |
|                      page 1| |                   page 1a |
|____________________________| |___________________________|

I compose page 1a, print it out, and then I want to continue
to work on page 1 to place "End of report." string on it and
print it out. How can I store what I've already placed on the
page, then print out another page, throw back in the contense
of the preserved page, add somthing and print that page out as
well?

Thanks for any help or hint!
