I have multiple tables in a report. When a table stretches to next page,a sentence "to be continued" to be mentioned in the last row of the current page.I don't know how to do this.Surfed a lot and didnt't fine solid stuff on this. Please suggest some ideas to implement it.

Without a table you could use the default columnfooter band for that purpose, where you just evaluate if the current record count < the total record count. This is what I did in former times for some customers, that also wanted a "hint" on the current page, that some content is wrapped to next page(s). This was working fine... but I never used the table-component for represent the records.
Within a table component it's probably (not tried) impossible (without the - sorry, but "quite senseless" - comment by hozawa to modifiy the (open) source-code of JasperReports library! )
Perhaps there is also a way to incrememt a variable that is evaluated for each table-row and you could use it "outside" the table for the default column-footer band and "redesign" a "fake table row" (some borders etc around a textfield) with your static text "to be continued" !??! Just give it a try!
