You can see the problem from a single table:

Program User Status
English Jane First
Math Jane Repeat
English Joe First
Science Joe First
Math Lily Repeat
Math Raul First

They would want this to look like this on a single page:

ENGLISH

FIRST 2 REPEAT 0

MATH

FIRST 1 REPEAT 2

and so on.

The problem that I have is that, when I tell it to break
to the second column for status, that also seems to force
a page break. If it breaks to the second column for
FIRST, I think it also breaks to a new column after
REPEAT, which puts it on the next page.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

FIRST
