In Reports, there is a system variable (Page Count) that displays the total number of pages the report will generate. Another system variable is (Page Number) which indicates the current page one is viewing at any given time.
I have need to access these values as I want to display or not display certain objects depending on what page number is being printed. For instance, show an "Initial ______" object that is placed in the Page Footer band on every page but the first and last page. This should be easily done with Property commands, except I cannot seem to capture the system variable values. One can assign a Component ID to these objects, but GetProperty PgCt TextValue 'vPgCt' does not retrieve the value of (Page Count). (with a Component ID of PgCt assigned.) Am I missing something here and are there any suggestions? (Ver. 7.5) Thanks, -Bob -- Thompson Technology Consultants LaPorte, IN 46350 219-363-7441
