Processing the last page

rbuser

Hello

How do I know if I am processing the last page of my report?

I know there is a OnPageStart event but there is no property I can see for
the last page number

Cheers

Paul

Hi Paul,

If you create a two pass report, you can compare the Report.AbsolutePageNo
to the Report.AbsolutePageCount to determine whether you are on the last
page or not.

Thanks Nico

Are TwoPass reports slower/less efficient? What is the best practice when
deciding the passsettings for a report?

yes.


AFAIK the report won't know if it's on the last page if it's not a 2 pass
report on the 2nd pass.

This still doesnt work

My report is a report with a sub report in it.

The sub report can take up more than 1 page. When I I set the subreport to
a 2 pass report the absolute page no is always 0?

Hi Paul,

1. Be sure you are using the AbsolutePageCount and AbsolutePageNo
properties of the main report object to find the page count for the entire
report.

2. Are you loading templates? If so, you need to be sure you save them
down as TwoPass reports or the PassSetting property will be ignored and the
page count will always return 0.
