How do you Print First and Last Page Numbers for Report Groups?
Posted: 9 Aug 02
|
Step1: Open your report in Design View.
Step2: Make sure that in your Group Hearder Section under properties that you have Force New Page set to None and On Format is blank.
Step3: Make sure in the Group Footer Section under properties that you have Force New Page set to None and On Format is blank.
Step4: Goto Insert on the Menu bar and select Page Numbers, select Page N of M, select Bottom of Page(assuming you want the page info at the bottom of the page), select Alignment, and Show number on First Page if desired.
Step5: For the box you just created in Step4 select properties and make Visible = No.
Step6: Open your tool box and and click the [ab|] button, create an unbound text box in the Page Footer section of your report.
Step7: Delete only the Label box for the unbound text box you created in Step6. You won't need the Label.
Step8: In properties on the unbound text box you just created type ctlGrpPages in the Name field under the All tab.
Step9: Goto View on the Menu bar and select Code. Once Visual Basic windows opens be sure you select PageFooterSection and Format in the 2 boxes on the right above the large entry box where the code below will be pasted!
Step10: Paste the code below this line into the large entry box:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Dim GrpArrayPage(), GrpArrayPages() Dim GrpNameCurrent As Variant, GrpNamePrevious As Variant Dim GrpPage As Integer, GrpPages As Integer
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
End Sub
Private Sub PageFooterSection_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Dim i As Integer If Me.Pages = 0 Then ReDim Preserve GrpArrayPage(Me.Page + 1) ReDim Preserve GrpArrayPages(Me.Page + 1) GrpNameCurrent = Me!yournamehere If GrpNameCurrent = GrpNamePrevious Then GrpArrayPage(Me.Page) = GrpArrayPage(Me.Page - 1) + 1 GrpPages = GrpArrayPage(Me.Page) For i = Me.Page - ((GrpPages) - 1) To Me.Page GrpArrayPages(i) = GrpPages Next i Else GrpPage = 1 GrpArrayPage(Me.Page) = GrpPage GrpArrayPages(Me.Page) = GrpPage End If Else Me!ctlGrpPages = "Page " & GrpArrayPage(Me.Page) & " of " & GrpArrayPages(Me.Page) End If GrpNamePrevious = GrpNameCurrent
End Sub
Step11: Make sure that this parameter: GrpNameCurrent = Me!yournamehere has your Group Header name in place of Name! This can be found in the report design view on the gray bar for the section called (yourname Header)!
Step12: Save and close the VB screen.
Step13: View the report. The unbound text box should read Page 1 of ? and as you scroll through the pages you should see with the next changed value for Group Header the page number change to Page 1 of ? for that group!
Hope this is a detailed enough procedure for any novice to be able to complete this function! Good Luck!
