Problem using SystemVariable, count pages...

rbuser

Hello, I'm using SystemVariable, to count my pages, using vartype :=
PageSetDesc

But it's a bug in the System Variable, when I preview, show me: Page 1 to 1,
but I have more then 30 pages... when I go to the last page, the counter
show me correct.. but it's necessary to go to the last page, to show me
correct, if I doesn't do these, show me:

Page 1: Page 1 to 1
Page 2: Page 2 to 2
....

I'm using 10.06 version to BDS2006.

Thanks for all, and sorry my poor english.

Fillipe,

You need to be sure you are generating a two pass report.
Report.PassSetting := psTwoPass; This is also a published property.

ReportBuilder does not know how many pages are in a report unless it passes
through the report before generating all the drawcommands. For a OnePass
report, there is no way for the report engine to determine the total number
of pages.

In a two pass report, only the pagination is calculated for the first pass
so it occurs very quickly and should not slow down your reports
significantly.
