Have Subreport NOT Keep Together

I have a subreport inside a table on the main report. It seems
everything I
try the subreport will keep together on a new page if it cannot fit
itself
on the rest of the first page. How can I have the subreport display
it's
data on the rest of the first page and continue on to the second page?
I have looked at everything I can think of. Keep Together is set to
false
everywhere.
Please help.
Thanks,Same thing here !
We have reports with 2-3 levels of subreports and the data "migrates"
sometimes to the 4th page, leaving the first 2-3 pages just with a small
header on top... it's very difficult to explain to a client why their report
looks like that. And this problem is active since the beginning of reporting
services. A few service packs later, a new version, and it's still out
there...
For some of the reports we managed to eliminate the subreports, but just
imagine how the datasets look like in the main report :(
Or, we transferred the burden of "subreporting" to the processing part,
creating a separate table to keep all the pre-calculated data, with headers
and subreport information, etc., leaving to Reporting Services the only task
of displaying the content of the table. But it's much more difficult and it
lacks flexibility !
Please, if anyone has a solution to this, make it public !
We regularly search the newsgroups for a solution to this problem, but
untill now, we just noticed a lot of people having this problem...
Thank you,
Andrei.

to their wish list. So you really need to limit the use of sub reports
or you can run into this issue.
Hopefully they can expedite the resolution of this issue.

footers thing" but got that working.
I am now at the point where I am possibly going to play with the byte stream
output by Localreport.Render("PDF"...) to try and make it work the way I
want. Fortunately only PDF is reuired.
Will come back to this post if I find something...
