RTF Export Title Band - Header section

Post by Pascal_(Guest) » Thu Mar 19, 2015 5:06 am

Hello,____we need to export some data to a RTF File.__The first page of the resulting file must have an overview page with some statistics. The records itself shall be printed at page 2 and following pages.____To fullfil the requirement we put all the fields for the overview page on the title band and at the end of the title band one New Page Line.__This has the great advantage the first record appears on page 2.____This works great in Print Preview. But when we export to RTF and open with MS Word, the Titel Band is shown as Header section (shown on every page) ?!?____Question: Is there any setting to change this behaviour? Is there another workaround to tell R&R to start printing the records at page 2 instead of page 1?____Any help would be much appreciated__Regards Pascal

I think the best solution would be for you to create a large group header band for the first page that takes up all the space and then insert a "page break" into the report following it. Also, create a conditional field on the record number that controls showing the header band.____OnFirstRec: RECNO() = 1____Use this as the basis for a conditional line that prints only when True.
