Pagenumber and Problems ....

I want to accomplish the following:
Within an app the user can print multiple contracts (by multiselect), each contract can have multiple pages.
* I want each contract numbered from 1 to the number of pages this particular contract has (not the number of total pages of the print job.)

If I set the dataset of the Report-Page to Contract then i can use
<page>: Delivers the correct numbering within a contract.
<totalpages>: unkown number ??? value is decremented after each contract.
<totalpages#>: number of pages of the print job
<page#>: Number of page within the printjob.

also <totalpages> is only filled if two-path is activated.

Questions:
Is there a bug in the evaluation of <totalpages>, because its count back?
-> I thought it would be the count of pages produced within the linked page-dataset (which i need).

Is it possible to calculate this var also within a single-path report.

Finally: If i link the dataset to the report (outside),
<totalpages> is always the number of the printjob.
<page> is always the page-number within the printjob.
Bug or feature?

thx
Dave.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
