Page count

edited October 2001 in General
Hi all, I want my report page count only after my first page is displayed.

I'll explain.

I have big report generated. Here's the step I'm doing.

I create my query.
I run the query.
I create the index.
I display (showmodal) my custom report.
and now...
My report don't display quick because I have set the Two Pass setting in my
report builder. I need the page count displaying on the report.

Is there a way to display the first page of the report and then the second
pass in the report will proceed to get the page count, like that I would
like to be able to display the first page of the report and at the same time
the counting of the page will be processing at the same time.

Thanks.

    If the Report.PassSetting is set to psOnePass, then you'll see the page
    numbers incremented as the pages are previewed. All of the pages have to be
    generated in order for the page count to be known when previewing the first
    page. There is no other known way of approaching this.
