Hi,
I am using Column SUBHEAD in one of my PDF Reports to display Column Titles when the sort fiel Value changes and i want to know if there is a way repeat these titles at the begining of the page when the data for a particular value is displayed across multiple pages.
Thanks

If I understand what you are saying...perhaps SUBFOOT?

It is possible to do this. You will need to create a COMPUTE field that is equal to 0 or 1 based on the page number and the value of the sort field. This will serve as a flag indicating the page changed when the sort field value is still the same. Then duplicate your SUBHEAD and use the WHEN clause on it so that it only appears when the COMPUTE field value indicates a page change.

You could enhance the COMPUTE field so that it indicates either a sort field value change or a page change when the sort field value is still the same. Doing this will allow you to use one copy of the SUBHEAD with a WHEN clause.


Thanks!
