Page Headers

[brishanny]

Is there a way to only print page headers if its greater than the first page of GroupHeader2?

Thanks

you haven't defined really what you want to do very well.

Do you want page Headers to appear only after a group 2 header which will happen for each Group 1 generated. Usually these come BANG_BANG after eachother...but sobeit.

It is easily done.

Put the following formula in the Group 1 header and suppress it

//@InitHeaderFlag
WhilePrintingRecords;
BooleanVar headerFlag := True;

in the header for Group 2 place the following formula

//@setHeaderFlag
WhilePrintingRecords;
BooleanVar headerFlag := False;


in the section expert

for the conditional suppress for the PageHeader place the following formula

WhilePrintingRecords;
BooleanVar headerFlag ;

//the Not Onfirst record prevents the report from starting with a page Header
not onfirstRecord and headerFlag;

Jim thanks for the response. It worked except that the page header on the very first page shows. Is there a way for me to eliminate that?

Thanks

hmmm...

try this in the Report header

//@firstInit (suppressed)

BeforeReadingRecords;
BooleanVar headerFlag := True;


This will represent the absolute first time I have used "BeforeReadingRecords" but this seems to be a place for it.
