Is there a way to set the Band.Height dynamically.

This is the problem/reason why I am asking this is the following:

We got an invoice formular/print. The headinformation (order#, invoice#, customer, adress, ...)should only be printed at page one, at page 2 the headinformation should be much smaller. The total price should be at the last side, only.

I tried several solution approaches with groupings, autosize height, visibility by page, y-positon by page,...

 

Regards

Oliver

Hi;

      FWIW: Sounds like a job for two nested DataWindows. You could do it via various DW.Modify() commands and/or DW expressions but that could be a bit messy code wise to build & support. Just my $0.02.

Food for thought.

Regards .. Chris

visible attribute of all objects in header band should be conditional: if ( page()=1, 1, 0 )

make the header band autoheight and collapse it to zero height.

For the smaller page 2 items do the reverse.  if ( page()>1 ,1 , 0 )

Hi together!

I have tried this, we need this function on a DW for an invoice.

Should this technic really work?
