Creating Summary, Title or Cover Pages

Scroll Prev Top Next More

Typically, Report Header band prints at once at the beginning of the report. Using R:BASE for Windows Report Designer, If you would like to create a Summary, Title or Cover Page for your report, use "New Page" option of Report Header band properties of Report Designer. Any text and/or data on Report Header band will be printed as Summary, Title/Cover Page on a separate page.

 

Note: If placed, "Look Ahead" property for DB Calc (Count, Sum, Minimum, Maximum, Average) variable(s) should be set to True.

 

Look Ahead is designed to allow you to display report summary calculations in the Report Header band, Page Footer calculations in the Page Header band and Break Footer calculations in the Break Header band.

 

When the Look Ahead property is set to True, the draw command which represents the component on the rendered page will continue to update with the most recent calculation value until the report completes the generation of the associated page or break.

 

Note: The Report Pass Setting property must be set to Two Pass, in order for Look Ahead calculations to function reliably.
