Try myReport.AbsolutePageNo.

If that does not help, provide more details on what you are trying to
accomplish.

Hi,
my report contain some subreports. On designtime i do not know on which
page they will apear. Because there are tables in many of the supreports
which can be 2 rows long or 200 rows long. After printing subreport_1 RB
will print subreport_2. If subreport_1 is very small subreport_2 will be
placed on page1. If subreport_1 is very large subreport_2 will be placed
on page 2 (or 3). So there must be an event (while printing) that can tell
me on which page the subreport_2 is placed (the begin off..) for example.

What I am trying to do is a simple "Table of contents" with page numbers
for each subreport.

Thanks for answer,

The following example implements a table of contents. A subreport containing
a memo is used to display the table of contents on the first page. The
Report.PassSetting is set to psTwoPass. During the first pass, the memo is
loaded with the table of contents info.

Hi,

first of all, thanks for your answer.

But I do not have any goups to add such an event.
I just have subreports. Where can I add instead of this the event like
"AfterGroupBreak".
The reason for that is, that some subreports can be hidden, or can be
longer, so all of the following subreprots will be printed one page later.
I just have to know for the TOC on which page of the report the subreport
starts.

Thanks for your answer,

Stephan

Try using the ChildReport OnStartFirstPass event, this event will fire each
time the childreport generates. (There is also an OnStartPage event, but
this fires each time the subreport generates a page).

At Delphi design-time, access the workspace for the subreport. The
childreport object will become selected in the object inspector. Select the
events tab of the object inspector adn you will see the childreport events.
