How to show "page x of x " in footer without generating whole report at a time..

edited December 2001 in General
Hi all,
I am facing one problem. I am gereating report page by
page.means one page at a time by accessing data.
I want to show page no. in Footer band like "Page x of x".
Since I am generating single page it is only possible when last page comes.
Is there any other way by which I can show page no in this fashion.I don't
want to generate whole report in one pass.because it is very big report
containg appox. 5,000 records.
Thanx in anticipation,

Uma Tripathi

    There is no way for the report to know the total number of pages until
    it has completed the first pass - thus you must set report.PassSetting
    to psTwoPass.

    If you have a very simple report that prints the same number of records
    on each page then you could perhaps calculate this ahead of time and
    print it using a TppVAriable.
