Counter Initialization Problem

[TEM3]

Using Crystal Reports 8.5.....

I have a counter that counts two items within a Grouping. My initialization formula is:

Shared Numbervar PGCount;
Shared Numbervar CGCount;

PGCount := 0;
CGCount := 0;

I have placed that in the header of Group 2 suppressed and as long as the Group 2 listing does not go to the next page, my totals are accurate. However if the Group continues onto another page, my counts are reset. Is there another way to do this or another place to put my counter??

My counting formula is:

Shared Numbervar CGCount;
Shared Numbervar PGCount;
whileprintingrecords;
if {@Pending} = "Pending" then PGCount := PGCount + 1 else CGCount := CGCount + 1

Right click on the Group Header (in the grey area) and choose Change Group or go to Report/Change Group Expert... and choose your group and click the Options button. Uncheck the "Report Group Heade on Each Page" option.

Change your initialization formula to:

Shared Numbervar PGCount;
Shared Numbervar CGCount;

if not inrepeatedgroupheader then(
PGCount := 0;
CGCount := 0
);

Also, shared variables are only necessary for sharing between subreports or between main and subreport, so if you are not using subreports, you can just use "numbervar".
