show same labels more than once

[lotwal01]

Hi,
I have a report that print out address labels for the user to put on envelopes. At the moment it prints out every label once. Now the users have requested that they want to choose how many labels that comes out. So instead of choosing how many copies to print out they i.e want five labels in a row. The report gets exactly how many labels it shold print from a parameter sent from VB.

I'm using VB 6 and Crystal Reports 8.5 (RDC).

If you used the OCX there is a DetailCopies property you can use.

I'm not sure there is an euqivalent property for the RDC. Editor and Publisher of Crystal Clear

Thanks for your quick answer but I'm sorry to say that it didn't work. I can't find a property called DetailCopies.

If it is just one report you need it with, use the OCX and the property there. It is a lot simplier than the RDC. Editor and Publisher of Crystal Clear

Ok, stupid question, but how do I do that? I'm relatively new to CR programming. /

I found the way to use it in RDC. You have to use the AREA object:
Report.Areas.Item("D&quot.CopiesToPrint = 3
