Hiii...

&nextpage& is 0 for last page.

U just create a text element for this and copy it into all the pages.. and in that write text <b>"continued on page"</b> , drag and drop the parameter <b>&nextpage&</b> here. Now for this text element in the <b>CONDITIONS</b> tab parameter is &nextpage&, and click on the space where u can put the condition ,..then u will get a popup box , in that select '#' not equal to.. and in the value field give 0...

Here is the condition for that (in scripts )..

<b>/:if &nextpage& ne 0.

continued on page &nextpage&

/:endif.</b>

Hope it helps u...

Hi Siddhesh

all you can do is take a variable named next_page in the global declaration with default value as 1.

now put this in program lines keeping next_page in input and output parameters.

next_page = next_page + 1.

now in the text under the conditions tab put a condition that next_page is less than sfsy-formpages.

hope this may help you.

Define a Text in Main window... in that write: 'To be continued on: &SFSY-PAGE&

GO to conditions of the TEXT... there specify SFSY-PAGE NE SFSY-FORMPAGES
