I'd like to show a page header only on the first page of my report. I realize that I'm basically making it into a report header but I have a little problem.

I have to show selection criteria for a report on the first page the report and I would normally put the selection criteria in a report header (because the selection criteria should only appear on the first page, below the normal page header). However, above the selection criteria I need a page header that includes other report info (company info, date/time the report was printed, etc) to needs to be repeated on all pages.

It's hard for me to explain but I figure I have only one option and that would be to suppress a page header after page 1. I was just wondering if there is a formula for that. Thanks!


 
In the design window, rt click on the page header and select format. Check the suppress checkbox to suppress the entire section. Then click the X-2 button for conditional suppression just to the right, and enter the following formula:

Not OnFirstRecord

That will supress the entire section EXCEPT for the first page. Software Support for Macola, Crystal Reports and Goldmine

Thanks! I realize now that I presented my problem opposite of what it should have been. I meant to suppress on page 1 but to appear on the rest of the pages. I knocked off the 'not' and it works the way I need it to. Thanks very much!
