Current Page Number

rbuser

Hi,

I've got to a stage where I can display number of report pages on my form.
As I move forward through pages, the current page number also increments.
However, if I move back to previous pages, the AbsolutePageNo seems to
report the highest page number that has been viewed, not the currently
displayed page.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Alex

Set the report's pass property to 'twoPass', then it first builds and counts
all pages before displaying the first one. Otherwise RB creates only those
pages you are walking through.

Hi Robbi,

My total page count is correct as I do use twoPass. However, when scrolling
backwards from the last page, the AbsolutePageNo property does not appear to
return the correct page number.

Thanks

why don't you use the TppSystemVariable configured as vtPageSetDesc or
vtPageSet (VarType)
this will give you page x/y
ans works correctly in the preview

Please take another look at the Reports demo in RBuilder/Reports. It
displays the page number in the Viewer's page change event and uses the
Viewer's FirstPage, NextPage, and Last page methods to traverse the report.
Hopefully following this example should help you figure out where your
problem lies.
