I want to display the company logo and the report title only in the first page,

So far in searching the web I found and tested the following

-- In the Print Page event datawindow

A.)

IF Pagenumber > 1 THEN
dw_report.object.p_header.Visible=false
dw_report.object.r_title.Visible = false
END IF

It works only in the first page but in the succeeding pages, it will leave a blank space since the objects are only hidden.

B.)

IF Pagenumber > 1 THEN
dw_report.object.p_header.Visible=false
dw_report.object.r_title.Visible = false
dw_report.object.datawindow.header.height = 100
END IF

Hide the objects but some of the details in the succeeding pages are not displayed.

 

Any suggestions please?

Hi John;

   I would do all the changes in the DW object itself. Use the Page() method as an "expression" on the visible property of the object that you wish to hide. The next consideration would be the position of the Header Band based on the desired amount of space that you wish to expose. Use the same expression approach.

  I would use a second control like a DataStore to house the printable DWO. Then just copy / share the visible DW buffers between the DS's DWO when printing.

Food for thought.

Regards ... Chris

Or create a "Header Group" as first header group which include your logo and title

And on this header Band check the property "Suppress Group Header" to TRUE
