Page numbering for each record.

edited May 2005 in Subreports
Hi,
Is it possible to have paging done on each record basic? i.e. if a
record (master file) span 4 pages, then the first page is Page 1 of 4 (line
the PageSetDesc setting for the System Variable), Page 2of 4 and so on. If
the next record occupied only one page then it will be Page 1 of 1.

    Hi Jonathan,

    Try using the DetailBand.BeforePrint event to know when the master record
    has changed if you are using a Master-Detail report then check the page
    number (Report.PageNo) and update the value of a TppVariable component
    elsewhere in your report. If you are using Groups, simply use the
    GroupHeader.BeforePrint event.

    Hi Nico Cizik,
    I am not sure I can get the number of page for particular record as I
    mentioned in my earlier question. You see, for each record, it might take
    several page and I need to know the total number of page for this record so
    that I can print the page number in the format like 'page 1 of 4'. Where
    could I get this '4'?

    Hi Jonathan,

    Are you using groups? If so, you can use the Report.PageCount property to
    discover how many pages are in the current group if you have your report set
    to psTwoPass.
