Hello.

In a report you can use ## to show what page number you are viewing.

How would I make it say page # of #?

For example page 1 of 4, page 3 of 7 and so on .

Do the following:

1) create a global number field in the table that you are printing from, call it gNumPages

2) In your layout that you are printing include the following (the stuff in << >> is a merge field, accessed from the Insert menu in layout mode):

Page ## of <>

3) In your script that you use for printing include the following, once you have the correct found set that you want to print:

Go to the print layout

Enter preview mode

Print Setup(restore)

go to record/request/page(last)

set field(gNumPages, Get(PageNumber)

commit records/requests

go to record/request/page(first)

Print

Enter Browse mode

That's it. Basically you need to enter preview mode, go to the last page and record the current page number to the global field.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.

I guess I'll get the hang of it now...
