Hi Luigi,

For ReportBuilder 11, the TppSystemVariable component was enhanced to
display the copy number of the report. Simply set the VarType property to
vtCopyNo or vtCopyNoDesc and the copy number will be printed for each copy
other than the original.

I mean getting the copy number because i have to use it in rap code, i
don't need to print.

Basically i have to reset a variable when a new copy of the document is
printed.

I have RB 10.06, no way to achieve it?

Hi Luigi,

In this case you will need to keep track of how many times the StartPage
event is called with a page number of "1". Take a look at the following
example on how this can be done in Delphi. It should not be very difficult
to do something similar in RAP using global variables.
