Separate Reports in BIRT

My application necessitates that each 1000 records be grouped together to one report. Like, when the user clicks on a button to generate report and suppose there are totally 10,000 records to be displayed in the report, it must produce 10 separate reports, with 1-1000 records in 1st report, 1001-2000 in the second report and so on.

Is such a provision available in BIRT?

Hi coolguy,

So, you want to run the report design once and get 10 separate PDF's, or whatever, with 1000 records each?

yes; this is my condition - you are gonna hit only one "submit" button; but you should be getting say 10 pdfs splitting a large report. 
 
I was doubting if I can configure the no-of records appearing in each report.

You may want to check out this post in the devShare. I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds similar to what you're looking to do. Not sure if you can do it for groups of rows rather than every row, like the description says, but it's worth checking out, I'm sure.
