Page numbers in reports

Post by KlingonTrucker »

So, I have a report from a query that is being problematic in its design. My first issue is with Numbering. Using the tools to add page # of # to the frooter of the report gets me a good result except that, inexplicably, the first page says "Page 1 of 5" and the 2nd and 3rd pages properly state "page 2 of 3" and "Page 3 of 3".

I don't believe I've done any crazy custom page number magic, I'm not that good. So is there a reason the first page (and only the first page) reads 2 extra pages?

Hello Mr. Trucker,

I have read your message. As long as I remember I rather preferred wizard-driven dynamic report build because pages get updated automatically on each launch.

Would therefore kindly ask you to test attached odb file.
