I wanted to know if there is an option wherein we can get the count of page nos in Baan so that on each page we can print Page no 1 of (count of page no).Even if it is device and paper type dependant is there any variable that has its value.

If you can avoid doing this. I had one report that I did this on(print po's) - after about 5 years of constantly adjusting it, I pretty much stopped supporting it. Read the above solutions and they will show you what they do and how they get the report variables.

Hello sir,how i pre calculate the headers length sir,(if i use more than 1 headers)how do i calculate length of header for calculating total page.
please give reply as quick as possible sir,very very urgent.

Well the one report we did the headers were static. So we just initialized a value for example header.1.rows = 10, header.2.rows = 6. If your report is pretty static like 1 row for header, 1 row for detail. Then you can just add them up and divide by the page length. Ours was more complicated since we printed text in PO's.

I would recommend looking at Hidox if possible.

The dirty way would be to run the report twice.

Thank you guru,it works fine
