Let's say I have a report(HTML output) with 10 pages. I would like to have the page numbers like 1 of 10, 2 of 10, 3 of 10...... 10 of 10.

I know this can be done in PDF or Excel though, but not sure if this can be achieved in HTML as well?

Any clue?

Thanks

Hi Prit,

im sure this is not a correct process.but we can also do like this.

>just drag a text item beside that page number and enter  'of 10'

if it is urgent requirement we can use this method.other wise we will wait for better reply.


thanks

@Prit: How can we do this in PDF or Excel

PDF we can do this.

In footer, click on Page Number --> Properties you can seen an option 'Page Number Style' and can define the format you want to display e.g. 1-1, 1-a, 1of3 etc..

Actually PDF retrieves all the records at a time, hence it's easy to identify the Total number of pages based on the number of rows, where as in HTML it retrieves page by page and unable to determine the Total number of pages.

Thanks
