Remarks
Allowing the user to define the number of report copies
Since the NbCopy property can only be used in the code of the report, the number of copies must be passed as parameter to the report in the print code.
For example:
- Code used to print the report.
iPrintReport(RPT_MyReport, 3)
- Opening code of report.
PROCEDURE RPT_MyReport(nNbCopies)
RPT_MyReport.NbCopy = nNbCopies
Limits
- The NbCopy property applies only to reports (and not to controls or blocks in a report).
- This property is taken into account when the print is performed on a printer.
