Rectangles and elements in them -- sql server reporting services

I am using 2003 version of SQL reporting services.

I have a couple of rectangles in a report so that I can force a page
break after each one. That part works fine.

When I created the rectangles, some of my textboxes were, for lack of a
better word, associated with the rectangle. Meaning, if I delete the
rectangle, those elements disappear as well. However, not ALL of the
elements got associated with the rectangle.

How do I associate those other elements with the rectangle?

OR, is there a better way to insert a page break between "sections" of
my report?

Thanks for any input!

I generally copy, then paste the items into the rectangle... There is a
Parent ( if I remember correctly) which shows the ownership chain...

Then delete the orig... Simply dragging an existing item into the rectangle
won't do it..
