I am using Telerik Reporting 2009 Q2 version. In my report, I need to reset the page number by report group.
I had been looking for the solution few days.
In the forum, referring to (http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/reporting/telerik-reporting/having-a-pagecount-on-grouping.aspx)
Mr Steve said, Telerik don't have such feature.
But, is there any work around to have it?
I actually did write a function for it. But still not able to get the result as I want. Below is the function:
In my report, I define the page number as 1 in the text box by default.
When I preview the report, I keep getting page number = 1 even thought a DO is print in 2 pages.
Where is my mistake? Or, the function above totally won't be working?

| private void ghDO_ItemDataBound(object sender, EventArgs e) |
| { |
| //Get the group section object from sender |
| Telerik.Reporting.Processing.GroupSection groupSection = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.GroupSection)sender; |
| //From the group section object get the current DataRow |
| System.Data.DataRow row = (System.Data.DataRow)groupSection.DataObject.RawData; |
| //If Previous DO is not equal to current DO. Page Number reset to 1. |
| if (OldDO != null && OldDO != groupSection.DataObject["do_no"].ToString()) |
| { |
| |
| pageNumber = 1; |
| } |
| else |
| { |
| pageNumber = pageNumber + 1; |
| } |
| OldDO = groupSection.DataObject["do_no"].ToString(); |
| pageNo.Value = pageNumber.ToString(); |
| } |

Hi Tan,
The only solution is use different report instances for each group (e.g. one report definition with one group data) and the ReportBook as described in the other thread. In this way you will be able to control the paging through the PageNumberingStyle property of the Report.
Your workaround is not possible as the ItemDataBinding and ItemDataBound events are raised during the report processing stage and are called only once for each group. Paging is performed later during the actual report rendering. This is the reason why page number always stays to 1. It is just because you always have a different group header when the method is called.
Hope this information helps.
All the best,
