Printing a text on report , not on first print

rbuser

Hi,

I need to add a text on a report and it has to be on all pages except the
first print.

For example:

I have a report which gives 2 pages when i print, i print it 3 times.
The text must be on pages 3-6, not on 1 & 2

If my report gives 1 page and i print 3 times it must be on pages 2 & 3.
If i only print it once, the text can not appear.

Any idea what the best way is to handle?

Thanks,Franky

In the label's OnPrint event, put either of the following lines:

ppLabel1.Visible := (ppReport1.Page > 1);
ppLabel1.Visible := (ppReport1.PageNo > 1);

(The second one is documented in the help file, the first one is not, so you
are probably safer with the second).

Hi Franky,

The following example may help.

Thanks Nico & Ed.

Looking at that example right now, looks just what i need .

I think Ed's code would print the label on each page that is not the first
right?

That's not what i ment, sorry if i was unclear.

I wanted a way to detect the nr of the printjob, not put it on the first
print and put it on the others.
I can detect how much times the doc will be printed with
Report.PrinterSetup.Copies but i didn't find a way to detect in the RAP what
nr is printing.

Anyway, the example will get me there, thanks.
