Oracle Reports: Showing Margin Objects Only on First Page of Report

[mgmonto]

I have an oracle report that contains margin fields within the body, that reference character placeholder columns. The place holder columns are not populated with actual report data retrieved from a query. They are populated with labels/indicators for the end user. My problem is that I only want these margin fields to print on the first page and I've designated this on the Advanced layout section of the property plalette for the specified field. I've assigned the value of "First Page" for the property Print Object On and I've tried all of the possible combinations of the two other properties Base Printing On and Keept with Anchoring Object. Still, the fields always print on all pages of the report. Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Also, thanks to nagronyi for the assistance with my last thread, showing the rownum within the report.

Don't use margings. Just put your labels to the Body, then "Print Object On" propery will work. You may need to expand the boundaries of the Body while in Margin mode (thick line) to be able to put the labels close to page ends.
