Printing 2 records per page

I have a report that groups member information and displays transactions made in the detail. This is a statement that is mailed out to the member showing their account info. Each record needs to be starting in exactly the same position on the page so that they can take all their print outs and use a paper cutter. My probelem is that the detail can be anywhere from 1-15 records, therefore moving the start of the next member. Is there any way I can force a certain number of lines in the detail so that it's always the same height?

Try setting up your member info in a group header on your report and set that group's Force New Page property to After Section
 
I do have a group header for the member, but I only want to show 2 records, not foce a new page. So something like this:

{Member Group Header]
Joe Blow
1234 Here Street
...
..

Payments: [Detail Section]
02/02/02 $30.00
02/10/02 $60.00

Then Have the same thing start half way down the page so that if I have 12 details, the next statement will start in the same place.

Hope this explains what I mean
