Discrepancy in report in the design and runtime

[abhi81]

Hello,
I created a report and added a suppression formula for 1 of the pageheader. The formula works well in the designer but not when i fire it of the asp page.

On further investigation i found out that this was because the totalpagecount field(being used in the formula) was not being populated when the report was first rendered but when i went to the last record and then if i browsed again from the first record the formula starts working.

The formula i used uses the totalpagecount variable which i think is causing the problem. I am not able to devise another formula replacing it.
Basically this is what i have:
PHa-Company Logo
PHb-Header for Details sections fields
GH1a-Order Num and associated records
GH1b-Header for Details sections fields
Da-the Detail records can grow to next page
GF1a-The subtotal,total and tax information
GF1b-sub report for Personalized items
GF1c-sub report for internal coments
PF-Companies address

I want to suppress PHb when it is first page and is not subreports in GF1b or GF1c which appear only if they are not empty.

I am also reseting the page after every invoice.

Is there some other way I can accomplish this.

Please share the content of the formula. It is unclear what the actual problem is--is the page header not suppressing on the first page of each invoice?

Hi LB,
thanks for looking into my problem but i was able to resolve it. I made some design change to the form and it is working as desired.
