Default `Continued...` in report details section

Hi there all

im running reports that may or may not spill over into several pages.

Im trying to get them to say `Continued...` if there are more pages
following the current one.

Thats no problem, sticking something to calculate wether or not to print
that in the page footer works fine.

However, I need the `continued` to appear just under the last data printed
in the `Details` section of the report, NOT at the bottom of the page as
appears in the page footer.

My current way of thinking is dynamically changing the page footer size
depending on the amount of space used in the Details part of the form, to
push the page footer contents up the page to appear just under the details
section of that page.

Getting the height of the details section (which I can use to change the
height of the page footer) always returns the total high of the details
section on the report, not the height of the area of page taken up with data.

Can anyone help?

Or come up with another idea!

heres a diagram of what im trying to do
