Hi, I want to display the print date/time whenever a report gets printed. This information should be in an order header section of the report, can anybody help me to do this? thank you.
 
Use a date control, select the format property as desired or manually enter, and use now() as the value exp. use convertTZ in your finish method if the application server is in a different time zone from the endusers.
 
Thank you dboehne, one follow up question, I have added this date control and used now(). However, I think Now() will give me the date and time the report was run, not neccesariily the time when the report was printed. Is there a separate function that can provide the exact datetime of printing?
