Page numbering : Page # of ##

[cinolas]

Hi to all,

I'm just wondering if it is possible to display the page number at the bottom of a page in the form

Page 1 of 12

Thanks

Yes, it's easy.

Create a calculation field (UNSTORED) that captures the pagenumber.

cPagenum = status (CurrentPageNumber)

Make the following script

Script name: PTR_define_lastpage

Enter Preview Mode

Go to Record/Request/Page [ Last ]

Set Field [ gPagetotal, Status(CurrentPageNumber) ]

Enter Browse Mode

The global gPagetotal now captures the last pagenumber because you instructed in preview mode to go to the last PAGE

Run this script just before you gonna print, applying to the right lay-out to be printed of course.

With the fields cPagenum and gPagetotal you can do the trick

Page # of ##. Place this in the footer of the lay-out to print.

Good luck

Harryk
