Pagenumber

[Koen L]

Hi,

We need to make a report with on every page a barcode. This barcode is used in a postsortingmachine.
This barcode will be different depending on pagenumber. Is it possible to see on what page u are in the report?
Then we can use the pagenumber to use so logic that creates the correct barcode for that page. U can see this barcode as a secuence of stripes in a vertical way.
If i read the lifecycle then i would say it's not possible. But maybe there is a way to do this anyway.

Kind regards,

[Peter]

Hello Koen L,

Data processing and paging are two separate processes and as explained in the Understanding Report Sections help article, the paging of a report strongly depends on the format it is rendered to, and that is why page sections and their items are processed by the corresponding rendering extension after the report data has been processed. This is the reason why PageNumber/PageCount globals are not available in any section other than PageHeader/Footer section. Still if the BarCode is located in PageHeader/Footer section you can use the PageNumber and PageCount objects for a BarCode.Value.
