My page header contains page number and some other information from my report. I need to suppress the page header on page 1 only. Also want it suppressed if the report is only 1 page long.

Thanks
 
A conditional suppress formula like
<PageNumber = 1>
or
<OnFirstRecord>
should do it.
 
I'm fairly new to Crystal reports and am having a tough time getting some of this. How would I go about adding something like that? ________________________________________

Format/Section

Choose the section you are interested in suppressing - in your case the Page Header.

Click the x-2 formula editor box next to suppress (do not click the suppress check box)

Enter the formuala.

Thank-you both. That solves my problem totally.

BTW: Anyone looking in the future...the formula is:
Code:
if PageNumber = 1 then
  true
else
  false

BJD,

That is not necessary.

The if is implicit in the suppression formula editor.

This is correct:

Pagenumber = 1


as is


OnFirstRecord

You just made it a little more complicated than it needed to be <grin> but hey you got it work for you.

I don't think OnFirstRecord would have worked for me. I have about 10 records on the first page...

Unless, because this is a grouping by page, each page is a record. That would make sense. Is that what it is?

Ughh.. I don't like report design. Just let me pass the data off to someone else's report...
