Page number in RTC for multiple records.

krithika · 2012-02-21

I am getting page numbers while running RTC report,but my scenario is when i run a report for multiple records,for example if i run PO report for more than one order,i should not get continuous page number instead i should get as : if order A has 3 pages and order B has 2 pages,it should show page number for order as 1 of 3,2 of 3 etc for order A and for oder B as 1 of 2 ...so on.Instead of showing continuous page number for both order together as 1 of 5 ,2 of 5 etc.

how to resolve this.

Thanks in advance.

you can find this in standard report
but I have no idea to display total pages ( Page 2 of 3 )

other than that, this is possible, below is my way ( short way )

Step 1; include method in Code

RTC Report Properties - > Code

REM Reset Page Number:

Shared offset as Integer

Public Function GetGroupPageNumber(NewPage as Boolean, pagenumber as Integer) as Object
If NewPage
offset = pagenumber - 1
End If
Return pagenumber - offset
End Function

Step 2; include NewPage
NewPage needs to return only TRUE, when it is a new page (returns FALSE/nothing, when it is not a new page), so find a place (group) which only appear in a new page ( not repeating every page ), and set textbox properties as below.
Value ; =True
Name ; NewPage
Hidden ; True

Step 3; include Page number textbox in Header/ Footer

RTC Header - Page Number text box

=Code.GetGroupPageNumber(ReportItems!NewPage.Value,Globals!PageNumber)

Howdy, Stranger!
