Keeping text together
 
I have a worksheet with a couple hundred lines of text. There are
randomly blank lines. I would like to make my pages break on the blank
line, so one group of text doesn't start on the end of one page, and
start on the beginning of another.

Keeping text together
 
You would need to insert manual pagebreaks at the places you want the pages
to break. These would have to be at locations before an automatic pagebreak
is inserted. (If the page will only support 60 rows, for example, you can't
put manual breaks at a 65 line interval and expect Excel to get those 65
lines all on one page).

You can record how to insert a pagebreak by turning on the macro recorder
and doing it manually.

then you can write your code to loop through your sheet and locate the blank
lines, inserting horizontal pagebreaks at those locations.
