How to set a PageFooter.Visible := ppSummaryBand1.Visible?

rbuser

Hello, I have the ppSummaryBand1, its a summary band of a Sub-Report.
But I want to print the PageFooter, only when a SummaryBand cant visible.

in other words... the ppSummaryBand1 (Sub-Report summary), shows in the
last page of Sub-Report, ok? And I want when is the Last Page of
Sub-Report (when ppSummaryBand1.Visible := True) the PageFooter isn't show.

How I do These?

Thanks very much,

Best Regards

Hi Fellipe,

Your best bet would be to use the FooterBand.BeforePrint event to check the
visibility of the subreport's summary band and assign its visibility there.
Something similar to the code in the subject of this message except add a
"not" opperator...

ppFooterBand.Visible := not(ppSummaryBand1.Visible);

Hi Fellipe,

Where is the Footer Band located on your report? Note that the page footer
is not supported for Child style subreports. This may be the reason the
footer band is not appearing.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Tech Tip: Subreport header/footer bands do not print for
Child type subreports.
------------------------------------------------------------------

For a subreport set to pbChild, the header/footer are not supported.
A child type subreport prints on its parent's page space and
therefore behaves more like a memo.

Options:

1. Use Title/Summary band.

2. Use GroupHeader/GroupFooter. If you need to repeat the header
when a page breaks then then you can create a group and
set StartNewPage to True.
