BO 5.X Display Data in Page Footer

[user999]

I'm forced to use Business Objects 5.1.8. I am creating a Medical report with multiple patient records. Some patients have less info and some have more so in some cases each patient records spans at least 1 page to 5+ pages.

To the point.

I need to insert patient labels on each page to identify the patient, Specifically in the lower right corner footer. With CR 8-XI, I could just put this info in the page footer and be done. CR would always grab the first available value.

In BO I get a multivalue error and have tried a few tricks that I've googled but have not encountered any desirable results. The closests I've come is displaying the first/last patient recorded data repeatedly on every page footer.

The report also contains sections that may span multiple pages so I THINK I have to put this data in the Report footer to get it to display correctly.

Is this IMMPOSSIBLE with Business Objects?

Your best bet for getting an answer to this is to post the question in the Business Objects solutions forum. This forum is specifically for Crystal reports.
