Hi,
I want to display a page number on my BIRT report. I have done it by writing the following piece of code on onPageStart event of the master page :
importPackage(Packages.java.lang);
prev = reportContext.getPersistentGlobalVariable("previous");
if( prev == null ){
reportContext.setPageVariable("CurrentPage", 1);
reportContext.setPersistentGlobalVariable("previous", "mp1");
reportContext.setPersistentGlobalVariable("mp1cnt", new Integer(1));
}else{
if( prev == "mp1"){
var cnt = reportContext.getPersistentGlobalVariable("mp1cnt");
cnt++;
reportContext.setPersistentGlobalVariable("mp1cnt", new Integer(cnt));
reportContext.setPageVariable("CurrentPage", cnt);
}else{
reportContext.setPageVariable("CurrentPage", 1);
reportContext.setPersistentGlobalVariable("previous", "mp1");
reportContext.setPersistentGlobalVariable("mp1cnt", new Integer(1));
}
}
*****
I have initialised the page varaible to 0. But there are two problems with it -
1. If I open the report as .ppt the page valiable starts with 0. And if I open it with report viewer it starts with 1. How to synch both these outputs.
2. If the table I am loading is too long to fit in a page it goes to the next page of the report but the page no(page variable) doesn't increment in this case.
Could someone please suggest a solution to these problems.
Thanks & Regards
Anwar

Anwar,
Any chance you could take sample db and create the report, so we can
help you with the issue?
Keep in mind page breaks are based on html not the ppt emitter. Set the
page break interval small enough where you will not have overrun. Also
Are you running directly to ppt or exporting to ppt from html?
