NOCLOSE and page numbering

Tue, 15 Apr 2003 11:36:45 -0700

I've used that technique for a different purpose: to be able to print "Page 1 of N" on each page of the report, and "CONTINUED" at the bottom of all but the last page.   It wasn't a lot of fun to get the overflow just right.  I used a lead-in QTP that created a subfile with a "line_number" field at the end of each record.

John,

Not that badly. I remember reading several years ago about a solution that involved counting the
records and calculating page numbers by dividing by 60 or whatever whilst taking into account the
number of the lines in the page header and footers and headers.

Thanks anyway.

Leonard

In most cases, not one that's worth the trouble it would take!

After the first report is created you could read through the newly created
and still open spool file looking for page numbers and saving the highest
page number. Then you could use this page number to create the Quiz "set
page number iii" statement in a single record text file which you would then
need to "use" with the second report. Not pretty :-(

How badly do you want to do this?

JWP

SET NOCLOSE permits a series of Quiz reports to be written to the same
spoolfile. Is there any way
of having the page numbers of second report start at the (last page number +
1) of the first report?

Thanks.
