I had two pdf layouts one is my cover page and other is data sheet, I would like to suppress page count in first page and start from second page.

example : I had a total of 6 pages, which includes first page as cover page and other is data sheet, i would like to start the page number form second page and get the count as 5 not as 6.

Hello,
Place this command in your second fex
"ON TABLE SET FOCFIRSTPAGE 1"

it didn't work.

Hello Venkatest,
Try the below code,
Consider fex one is your cover sheet and second fex is your data sheet.

TABLE FILE CAR 
PRINT RC DC
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF OPEN 
END


-*component_type report
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM RC DC
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
ON TABLE SET FOCFIRSTPAGE 1
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF CLOSE
END
