2 Copies - different text on each copy with collate=FALSE

edited June 2004 in General
Hello,

I have designed a report with a printer setup as follows

number of copies = 2
collate=FALSE

I want the first copy to have a text on a label, and the second a different
text on the same label.

How can I make it without setting Collate=TRUE?.

Thank you very much.

    Hi Felix,

    I created an example for you that adds a unique caption for each copy when
    collate pages is set to False. It essentially uses the
    TppPrinterDevice.OnStartPage event to add a unique TppDrawText to the report
    on the fiy. Note that this method will only work correctly if Collate
    property is set to False, or unchecked in the print dialog. Hope this
    helps.
