Ok, please someone help me w/this.  I am trying to create a command that will
allow me to keep all the text within the command together on a page.  Here
is the command in question:


\newcommand{\Field}[3]%
{
   \begin{list}%
   {B--}{ \addtolength{\leftmargin}{1in} \addtolength{\labelwidth}{1in} 
       \addtolength{\labelsep}{.2in} \addtolength{\topsep}{.2in}}
   \item[\large \bf Field:\hfill]  {\bf \underline{#1}}
   \item[\large \bf Values:\hfill]  #2
   \item[\large \bf Definition:\hfill] #3
   \end{list}
}


It produces a list similar to the following:

   Field             The field
   Values            The values
   Definition        The definition

The thing I want to avoid is having the list environment spilt accross to 
the next page.  If it would normally split to the next page, I want it
to do a pagebreak and begin the whole thing on the next page.  

Any and all help would be appreciated.

Thanx!
