page numbering by a report group

Hello all, I've created a report which lists lists invoices.  There is a group in the report for invoice number and the report is set to page break by invoice number.   The problem I have is that the pagenumber() and pagecount() functions work based on the total pages in the report.  I want to use page numbers in the report that show the number of pages for a given invoice i.e. resetting the page numbering back to 1 at the end of the invoice number group.

Can anyone offer any advice on a way to achieve this ?

Many Thanks

Mike

See "Control Page Breaks and Page Numbering" in chapter 3 of the Report Studio user guide.  You want to look at the pagination property (of what, I'm not sure - maybe your list, though in ReportNet the reset properties are properties of the pages/breaks in page explorer).  Sorry I can't be more specific as I don't have C8.
