In Microsoft Excel, you can specify page breaks. But, these are based on the number of rows per page. Crystal Reports provides even more functionality by allowing you to insert logical page breaks. That is, page breaks between groups. You can do this from the Format | Section menu. Crystal Reports: A Beginner’s Guide provides a step-by-step procedure.

For even more functionality, you can use third-party programs, such as the ones available here.
