Report problem

Hello, I have a problem with a report and hope that someone can help me fix it. I have to print a footer on the first page when a second page will be printed. This footer is different from the original footer and should not be printed if the report fits on one page. I have tried a transfooter but this doesn’t work. kind regards, Fred

You can use some criteria (like record count) to find out if 2nd page will be printed. And after use CurrReport.SHOWOUTPUT in TransHeader section. If this doesn’t work, search the forum on tricks how to find out number of total pages to be printed.

That would be a trans-footer! Under sections, press F3, Select the table you want to base it on - i.e. ‘if this table has more records to go to annother page’ You might want to take a look on the standard invoice or stetement reports - they use it!

The footer of the report is quite big and most of the time the Body-lines are all printed and it only has to print the footer on the next page. Trans-footer doesn’t work in this case. I searched the forum for a line-count or line-number but could not find anything. I also looked in the standard reports but wasn’t able to find this functionality.

I think You can insert upper Integer DataItem (with filter Number=1) and insert Transfooter for this DataItem.
