Dear QR Experts: I'm getting a weird bug. I am running a report, using a TADOStoredProc to populate the report, and when I try to set a TQRLabel.Caption to the value of the QuickRep1.QRPrinter.PageCount, it sometimes returns the correct number of pages, but not always. Does anyone know why, have a fix, etc.? Thanks, Matt. Back to top Dhaval Shah Guest Posted: Thu Apr 29, 2004 12:57 am    Post subject: Re: Help with QR PageCount, please.

Also, where are you getting the pagecount value (i mean, in which band?) Ideally, it'd be immediately after prepare (before preview or print statements).

Hello Dhaval: Thanks for looking at this, and trying to help. Your presuption is correct. Here is my code: QuickRep1.Prepare; QRLabel1.Caption := QuickRep1.QRPrinter.PageCount; The page number is always off the first time I run the report, but when I run it after that the number seems to be okay. Any ideas? Thanks, Matt. Quote: Dhaval Shah wrote: Hi Matt, are you calling QuickRep1.Prepare before getting the pagecount? (i presume so, but just re-confirming).

Hi all: I found a quick and dirty fix to the problem, in case anyone else runs into the same thing. If you call QuickRep1.Preview twice, instead of just once, before you call QuickRep1.QRPrinter.PageCount, then it returns the correct number of pages. If anyone out there knows of a cleaner solution, I'd welcome it. Thanks, Matt. "Matt Bollard" <mbollard (AT) hotmail (DOT) com> wrote Quote: Dear QR Experts: I'm getting a weird bug.

Does anyone know why, have a fix, etc.? Thanks, Matt. Quoted below from the QuickReport 4 (chm) help file: QRPrinter.Pagecount This integer property gives the number of pages in the currently completed report. It is read-only. Adding the pagecount to a Report It is necessary to make two passes - 1. ReportForm.Quickrep1.Prepare; // creates a metafle copy of the report 2. Execute code to set the label - ReportForm.PageCountLabel.Caption := format( ' of %d', [Reportform.Quickrep1.QRPrinter.Pagecount]); 3. Re-run the report ReportForm.Quickrep1.Prepare; ReportForm.Quickrep1.QRPrinter.Print; // prints the metafile ReportForm.Quickrep1.QRPrinter.Free; // close down ... ReportForm.Quickrep1.QRPrinter := nil; // ... clean up. However, the above does not help me as I am doing a Quickrep1.previewmodal, so calling Prepare twice leads to strange appearances like label captions repeating twice on the report.. about to give up.. Anyone have a solution?..
