Clarion Report writer 1

[jjyxk845]

Hi,

I'm Having problems writing a report and wondered if any one can point
me in the right direction.

I have my 3 bands defined, Header,Detail and group footer. The problem
I have is that i want the group footer to Appear at the bottom of the
page like a page footer. instead of after the last detail Record.

Ive try puting the fields I want to appear in the Page footer but It shows the next records data!

And help would be appreciated.

Cheers

JJ

Hi JJ,

Is this the Report Writer (separate product) OR the Report Designer within the Application?

Since there is no option to specify the Group footer band as ABSOLUTE in the report writer, you could play with Y-Axis value of the Footer band to achieve what you want.

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
It is the standalone RW.

Its funny because I have some calculated fields for the current record from the detail appear correctly in the page footer but some datafields show the next record.

Any Ideas of whats causing this?

Hi!

Do you have the Group Footer setup to throw a page on a break?

i've tried telling the group footer to be on a new page, that didn't work.

sorry any more ideas???

Hi!

You need to set the GROUP HEADER to a New page which will mean that a page break will be called AFTER the GROUP FOOTER is printer. To do that, you need to set -1 in the "Page Before" of the Group Header band properties. Hopefully, the fields in your Page Footer will print correctly.
