PageNumbers with Title/Summary

rbuser

Hi!

Is there a way to avoid that a Title or a summary is counted for the
pagenumber in the form '1 of 2' when they are on a new page.

Also when I have a group (new Page/reset PageCount) with a title and a
Summary the counting for the first and last group is wrong.

Maybe I can do this by code or RAP? Thanks.

Hi Günter,

Rather than using a SystemVariable in this case, I would recommend taking
complete control over the page numbering and use a TppVariable. You can use
the Report.PageNo and Report.PageCount to find the page with respect to the
group/subreport you are in, or you can use the Report.AbsolutePageNo and
AbsolutePageCount to find the page with respect to the entire report.
Remember to keep a two pass report.

Hmmm, thats simple not possible. Now my Programm is adding a Subreport to the
titel-band for printing a 'banner' and the selektions. This works fine without
changing the reports. What you say would be a lot of work because we have to
modify hundreds of reports.

I would prefer another solution

And in my eyes it is a bug that the summary-page is counted to the last group
and the title is counted to the first group.

Hi Günter,

While researching this I found that for the beginning of the report, you can
simply set the FooterBand.PrintOnFirstPage property to False and the group
page number will start correctly. The summary band needed a bit more work
however I was able to create a patch that solves the issue. In order for
the patch to work in your case, you will also need to set the
FooterBand.PrintOnLastPage to False as well.

Please send an email to support@digital-metaphors.com requesting the patch
and we'll send it to you as soon as possible.
