generate number list in report

[channelmaster]

Hi! How can I generate a number list in a report? this number list does not have a field in a table, for example,
when I make a list of customer in a report, it should automatically generate a number list:

1 Mr. Alpha
2 Mr. Foxpro
3 Mr. USA
|
|
and so on...

Is this possible? Thanks in advance

Channel,

Create a report variable (Report menu - Variables). Create a name and choose the Count option.

You can then use this variable in a report field.

If the table or cursor is in TRUE order and there are no deleted records you can use the RECNO() function. You may need to make it a string if you are concatinating it with the name.

ALLTRIM(STR(RECNO())) + ". " + table.emp_name

OR (using pad)

PADL(ALLTRIM(STR(RECNO())),3,' ') + ". " + table.emp_name
