The PageFooter band is used to output information such as page numbers, dates, and company information at the bottom of a page. The PageFooter band is output at the bottom of every page of the report. An unlimited number of PageFooter bands can be placed on a page.
Note:
The number of PageFooter
bands that can be placed on a page is effectively unlimited other
than by available space.
Example
Create a new report and drop three bands on a page: a PageFooter band for the current page number and number of pages in the report, a Data band to output data and a HeaderBand band to output data column headers. Drop a text component on the PageFooter band and enter the following expression in the Text Property Editor:
{PageNofM}
Note:
If you prefer instead of
typing the expression it is possible to select it from the System
Variables in the Expression Editor.
The result should look something like this:
Now run the report, and you will see that the page number is printed at the bottom of each page.
