WillContinue Property

[Pampers]

Hi Everyone,

I want to show a label-control (lblContinue) in report-page-footer (or somewhere else) if the detail-section will continue on the next page. How can I use the WillContinue-property of the detail-section to accomplish this?

First you will need a text box not a label.

I haven't played with will continue but I am guessing if you make your control source the following you will see a -1 for yes and 0 for false.

= Reports!YourReportNameHere!Section("Detail").willcontinue

Or to display specific text...

= IIF(Reports!YourReportNameHere!Section("Detail").willcontinue,"Yes","No")

If that doesn't work the solution is more complicated. The jist of it follows but post back if you need specifics. You will need a variable that is scoped to at least the report and set it on the format event of the detail section to the will continue property. Then you can make a function to return it and use it as your control source of the text box.
