RAP- How to detect the detail band is the last band to be printed

Hi,

How to check if the report detail band is the last band or not.


Thanks

You do not know whether the band is the last one on the page until the page
is completed. You could perhaps use the DetailBand.AfterPrint to store
information about the latest detail band that has printed on the page and
then in the Report.OnEndPage event you would know that the band is the last
on the page.

Here is a Delphi code example of drawing a line after the last detail band
on each page...

Hi, Nard

Thanks for the answer, but is it possible to know if the page is the last
page or not?

Best Regards,

It is not known whether a given Page is the last page until after the report
engine generates the page and sends it to the report's publisher (which in
turn sends the page to the device).

There is an Engine.AfterSendPage event. I tried the following and that
seemed to work:


procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
ppReport1.Engine.AfterSendPage := ehAfterSendPage;
end;

procedure TForm1.ehAfterSendPage(Sender: TObject);
begin
if ppReport1.Engine.Page.LastPage then
messagebeep(0);

end;
