Hi,

I'm trying to do the age old continued on next page. However I can not do it in the footer. It needs to be done inside the last detail section of the page.

I have looked into row calculation(has multi line data), distance from footer(no luck), and somehow passing a variable at runtime( don't think this is possible).

Any suggestions, or ideas?

HI

If you have specific number of records per each page then you can print the caption on loast detail else there is no other way you can print this in last detail.

The question is, when do you want the "continued" message to appear?  If it's only when a details section expands to the next page, there's no real way to do that.  If it's when a group or the report as a whole continues on the next page, you CAN do this in the page footer.  Try the following:
 
1.  Put a "Continued on next page" message in the page footer section.
 
2.  In the Section Manager, click on the formula button to the right of "Suppress"  (DO NOT check the checkbox!)
 
3.  If you're looking for the message when the whole report is continuing to the next page, just enter the following:
 
OnLastRecord
 
If you just want the message when a group continues to the next page, enter the following:
 
OnLastRecord or {group field} <> next({group field})

Thanks... but I need it in the last record.

If I could do a line count I could calculate it, record count is not accurate due to multi line data.
