Data Report Question

[Nathan]

Is it possible to make sure that a group header and footer print on every page or is it possible to get information from a database to print in the page header?

Hi:

Two questions to try to solve your post:

Are you using crystal reports? and What kind of information about your database do you need to post in the report?

Regards!

I'm using the vb6 data report designer and I want the group info on the top of every page...

Hi Nathan:

Well, in Crystal Reports you can use a field named FORMULA, it's in the toolbar and have an icon like this "x+2", when you click ask the name of the field, before shows the Edit Formula Window, don't write anything. Put the field wherever you need and select the width, color, font, etc.

Now, you need send the text to the field formula from the program using code like this:

CrystalReport1.Formulas(Index) = "formula_name = 'your group or text, etc'"

The index depends how many formulas there's in the report.

I guess that you can get the group or the database information that you need put in the header or footer secction in the report.

I hope this can help you but i don't understand about the group that you coment.

Best Regards.
