Q: How to create page numbering?​

Let’s say you want to show Page X of Y on your report.

In the dataset you need to create these items:

  • Label with text “Page “ (for simplicity add the space in there)
  • Dataset item of System type with Page Number set as System Type
  • Label with text “ of “
  • Dataset item of System type with Total Pages set as System Type

Now you can only add page numbering either in the Report Header or Report Footer. In order to do that, add all four elements in the layout and concatenate them together using Concat flag (it concatenates a textbox with one above, so just be sure to mark last 3).
