Page numbering question

[girlpower]

I have a report that's landscape view and also needs to have page numbers on the left-hand side rather than at the bottom of the page. I'm thinking it's a simple procedure to format my report to do this, but I can't figure it out. Can anyone offer any help?

simply make a text field, and make it's control source:

="Page " & [Page] & " of " & [Pages]

or you can just do =[Page]

Then you can put it anywhere on the report.

I'm not explaining it properly. The report is landscape, but I need the page number to print as if it were portrait. Does that make sense? It's a continuous report, so I can't place a page number in the detail section; if I put it in the footer or header, then I'm limited to either the left-hand or right-hand sides of the page. Is there a method to take a page number and have it print centered on the left side of a page?

Hi,

I think you need a text field as suggested by misscrf, but, make its properties (under Other): Vertical... yes.

Then position it where you need it on the report.

That might work! What if you put to hide duplicates = yes?

Can you do that?
