Page Footer only once in the Group of List (used If then VS Conditional Var.)

[sachinjohri]

I have trying very hard to get the simple functionality where in PDF pages , my page footer should not appear after first page so I used
IF ( PageNumber ()=1 ) THEN
    ( 'Page is 1' )
ELSE
    ( ' Not 1 ' )
-------------------
And it works fine in the Page footer also shows that page is 1 or not but I can not use the lots of formatted text data in table(not database) so I want to use the conditional variable .

I created the boolean Cond. Var. and gave the condition where (PageNumber ())='1' and tried it but it failed .I thought that report footer is not refreshing the page number in the condition so i tried other ways where I created a parameter "Pagefooter" (without a prompt) and used that as place holder for page number value and created a another String conditional variables and gave the condition
ParamValue('Pagefooter')=number2string(PageNumber ()) ( this wll not work)

But still it's not working
Your help is much appreciated

Thanks
