I want to display the invoice number in the page header where there is more than one page. I created a text box in the page header (not report header) that refers to a textbox in the body. =ReportItems!INVOICENUMBER.Value

I set the property of the header to Print on first page=False. The field will not display. I set the textbox in the body (that it refers to) to "Repeat report item with data region on every page" where "Date Region" = table1. In preview (in VS) the Page Header displays the Invoice number but it will not print.

When I upload the file and preview it in report manager, I can see the invoice number in page header plus the body textbox also repeats. However, neither of them prints.

Do you have any idea what the problem is? Thanks.
 
Is the textbox in a table header? In the past, I have put information in the details section of a table, and it prints in the page header using ReportItems!info.value. Are you using the "First" in your textbox? That might also cause problems printing on any page that does not contain the first item.
 
Thank you, thank you. The textbox was in the body above the table and it did use First. I put the invoice number in the table details (hidden) and not it prints as it should.[smile]
