Number of Pages in Report

thread243-754227

Number of Pages in Report

Number of Pages in Report

(OP)
Is there a WF variable that stores the total number of pages in a report? TABPAGENO provides the current page number, but I would like to display something like 'Page x of y' where y is the number of pages in the report.

Thanks,
Sean

RE: Number of Pages in Report

Use TABLASTPAGE.

RE: Number of Pages in Report

(OP)
When I try TABLASTPAGE, I get the error
(FOC406) THE FIELDNAME IS NOT RECOGNIZED: TABLASTPAGE

Here is a snippit of how I am using it...
FOOTING
"Page <TABLASTPAGE"

I am using WF version 4.3.6. Has TABLASTPAGE been added in a version more recent than that one?


Thanks,
Sean

RE: Number of Pages in Report

I don't think that it wasn't added until the 5.x release.
