Record Count?

rbuser

Hello,

How can I get a total recod count for a report and display it?


I have setup the report to 'two-pass' and also created a Calculated Variable
with the 'Count(*)' and I also set it to look-forward := TRUE

the problem is that it counts correctly the # of records for each page and
as each page gets printed the # gets increase and at the last page the total
# is correct. I would like to see that total # in the last page being
display in the first page as well, in other words: I would like to see the
real total # in every page.

I think it has to do w/ traversing the dataset... is there a way to
acoomplish this?

Thanks

Isi R.

Hi Isi,

The easiest way to do this would be to create a new dataset that
pre-processes the count of records you are traversing and displaying that
value on your report. Since the count wil be pre-processed, you will not
have to generate the report twice to get an accurate count.
