Printing "continued" on next page

rbuser

If a group breaks across a page, I want to reprint the group header text (which is dynamically created) followed by "continued...". I was using the OnGetText property of the TppLabel component to determine the text of the lable in addition to setting the "continued..." as necessary.

I was simply checking the Breaking property of the group to see if I needed to add "continued...", and this works fine EXCEPT for the very first time that the label is printed.

Text := [Insert function to determine text]
if not grpMain_ClaimFormat.Breaking then
Text := Text + ' continued...';

Is there a better way to do this?

Please see the main reports demos in the RBuilder installation. See report
number 71. It prints a 'continued...' label on the next page. It uses the
DetailBand.Overflow property to determine if the label should be shown. The
event to use is the DetailBand.BeforePrint event.

[In my best Agent Maxwell Smart voice....]Ahhh, the old "Overflow" trick.

Didn't even realize that was there, but then I was focusing on the group, not the detail.

Thanks,
