I'm trying to understand how you are supposed to add page numbers to the bottom of each page using ActiveReports3.
E.g.
Page 1 of 10.
Thanks,
Mo
Use the ReportInfo object with the following FormatString
Page {PageNumber} of {PageCount}
You can also use the ReportInfo object to display the print time with this FormatString
Printed: {RunDateTime}
Use the "ReportInfo" control and set the "FormatString" property.
There are two walkthroughs on how to do this at Data Dynamics website. You can see a link to both from the following page: http://www.datadynamics.com/Help/ARNET3/ar3oriPageNumberingWalkthroughs.html There is also an example of how to do this entirely in code from the following page: http://www.datadynamics.com/Help/ARNET3/ActiveReports3~DataDynamics.ActiveReports.ReportInfo.html

Does anyone know how to create a link to the header of a different wiki page?
I know if I have a header ##Header name that I can link to it on that page by using (#header-name) as my link, but I want to link to that header from a different page. Is this possible?
ie. I want to have a table of contents that can link to the sub-sections of each wiki page as well as to the page itself.
Edit: I mean a way besides just using the url link
http://github.com/project/wiki/Wiki-Page#header-name
EDIT 1: So totally wrong about before, I just read up a bit more. So we have this new support as well inside of GitHub Wikis! (Relatively new.)
You can also do something like this:
[[ Link text | page_title#header_title ]]
This might work a lot better for you! TIL because of this answer here. You can see me do this with the Prerequisite link and you can see my other links work the other way. Time for me to do some updates!
EDIT 1: Still useful but definitely NOT THE ONLY WAY.
So I answered a question about this before, you should avoid absolute links on GitHub (i.e. https://github.com/user/repo_name/...)
However, a good way (and kind of the only way inside of Wikis EDIT 1: TOTALLY NOT TRUE TO BEING THE ONLY WAY) of doing what you need can be seen like this:
[Header link](/user/repository_name/wiki/page_name#title).
This is kind of the linking unfortunately that the Wiki would support. This will change your directory page based off of GitHub. You can see that it would be
https://github.com/(the linkage you want to hit)
I have actually began doing something like this in a Wiki I work on here. Inside of my Sidebar, you can see I have a Getting Started Page, and then a subsection into it is a Prerequisite heading and it will properly lead people to where they need to go. You would be able to perform this same thing on any page. It is a tad verbose, but worth it as you can easily change things around if need be. This is also case-sensitive since it will change their location so be sure that in your linkage, the page is the proper case and your heading is all lowercase.
Hope this helps!
You can link to the header by simply assigning an id to header. e.g you've "Extension" header in a page called Abc.
# <a id="extension"></a> Extensions
You have another page "Call center" and you want to go to extension in abc , you can use reference linking of markdown i.e "The [extensions][1] are handled by agents"
[1]: url-of-abc/#extension
I tested Maxwell's "good way" to link to the header of another page in Github in Edit 1 on and it works perfectly.
#[crux-ports Installation](/user/crux-ports/blob/master/README.md#installation)
markdown generate slug for the heading and convert it to id, example
# [ topic ][ color ]
will be converted to
<h1 id="topic--color" data-line="643" class="code-line">[ topic ][ color ]</h1>
Thus, to link it you can write it as [color](#topic--color).
If the destination anchor is on another page (assume filename css.md) with path relative to current markdown page, then you can write it as [color](css.md#topic--color)
Attach the slugify function from vscode
// excerpt from https://github.com/yzhang-gh/vscode-markdown/blob/908d7ba5465a203e4299f346c179211d992ef468/src/util/slugify.ts
const str = '# [ topic ][ color ]';
const slug = encodeURI(
str.trim()
.replace(/\s+/g, "-") // Replace whitespace with -
.replace(/[\]\[\!\'\#\$\%\&\'\(\)\*\+\,\.\/\:\;\<\=\>\?\#\\\^\_\{\|\}\~\`。，、；：？！…—·ˉ¨‘’“”々～‖∶＂＇｀｜〃〔〕〈〉《》「」『』．〖〗【】（）［］｛｝]/g, "") // Remove known punctuators
.replace(/^\-+/, "") // Remove leading -
.replace(/\-+$/, "") // Remove trailing -
);
console.log(slug) // "topic--color"
I need to print the report footer before the group header/footer in ActiveReports 6. My code in report footer requires calculation from the group header/footer, so instead of moving all the controls to report header and do massive changes to code, I wonder if there's a quick way to just rearrange the page at print time.
I currently have:
rhMain (reportheader) for report cover page
gfVehicle (groupfooter) for detail on each vehicle, summary data is also calculated and stored here for each vehicle to be used in report summary
rfMain (reportfooter) for report summary
What I need to be arranged:
rhMain cover page
rfMain summary page
gfVehicle detail on each vehicle
What I have tried is move all the summary stuff to rhMain and during rfMain_format, I change the value of the controls in rhMain. This failed probably because rhMain is already rendered at this point.
Any other ideas?
There is no way to rearrange the sections during printing. The sections are designed to be rendered in a specific order and it cannot be changed. If you can provide some detailed information about your use case we may try suggesting some workaround. You can post your questions to ActiveReports support forums.
Can you please explain your scenario so we can try to help based on it. In general a report footer is nothing but a "group-footer" for the whole report (that is not bound, so would it help to replace the report-header/footer with an outside group header/footer.
Please include an image of what you're trying to do so we help further.

Is it possible to implement Table of contents with page number on first page of the PDF report?
I've read the below links and refered in google:
1) http://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/541300/table-contents-ireport
2) http://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/529040/generation-page-numbers-table-content
On first link, They are using scriptlets for this. I want Table of contents with page number on the first page of pdf report. But I do not understand where to start. Any ideas?
I would recommend you checking this sample from the original documentation.
There is no way (or at least I don't know/haven't found how) to generate the Table of Contents at the beginning (since there is no way to know the pages numbers). So you will have to generate it at the end (in the summary band) and move it afterwards to where you want to place it. To move it use JasperPrint class, methods getPages, addPage, removePage.
I guess you will have subreports, if so, you need to pass the JRBeanCollectionDataSource you will be filling during runtime to each subreport (and return the value back to the master report).
Hope that helps.
I am using iReport version 4.0.1. I am facing a problem in which I want to display some information that must come on the 2nd page only. So, its neither a FOOTER nor a LAST-PAGE-FOOTER. I am using iReport for generating the jrxml files and the design looks something like below.
{HEADER}
{DETAIL-BAND-1} Remarks: Till this point my 1st page finishes
{DETAIL-BAND-2} Remarks: This is coming from a sub-report
{DETAIL-BAND-3} Remarks : This is coming from a sub-report
Some Random Empty Space Is Left
{DETAIL-BAND-4} Remarks: This is where my 2nd page footer needs to come.
.
.
.
.
{Lots of Bands}
.
.
{MAIN-REPORT-FINISHES}
So, I want the footer (actually it is not a footer, its some detail that only need to come on the 2nd page of the pdf generated by JR) to be fixed relative to the top of the page in which it is being printed. Is there a way to do that?
Thanks
Try to use the property "Print When Expression" and then you can use a variable that already exists in your iReport called PAGE_COUNT and it will be printed only when this expression is true.
My SSRS report contains 7 input parameters and while running my report the size of the parameter(i.e. length) is increasing.
One of my input parameter(drop down list) may contain 100 characters so the size is not constant but i want to place all parameters in 2 lines or 3 lines(in a row).
Now it is coming 2 parameters per a row
Please advice
As gbn indicates, it's not easy to change the built in report server method of presenting the parameters. SSRS likes to always use two parameters per line, presented in the order that they exist in the report (which must match the dependency order.)
So the alternatives that gbn mentions: Both involve building a "Wrapper" application: some custom code or a web page that you can code however you like to get the parameters. Then you call Reporting Services, either in code or by passing a formatted URL with your parameters. The report can be displayed in a frame, new window, or passed as a stream to where ever you'd like.
The URL access is pretty straightforward and reliable: I often use it either by hand (to create "favorites") or in code.

For what you are looking for, these might be more work than you expected, but they will be extremely flexible for your interface.

You can certainly do that, just right click on the RDL file in the solution explorer and select view code. then move the XML tags named <ReportParameter Name="Nameofparameter"> under <ReportParameters> according to where ever you want to position. And then save it. thats it!!!
The report parameters are kind of floating in values of 2, so if u have 4 report parameters then it will be shown as 1,2 next line 3,4. Best of luck!!
Use ASP.NET for the paramaters and a ReportViewer control or URL access to render. Seriously.
I don't know of any option to present parameters any way other then the default
I believe you could try using jQuery. The report parameters are rendered in a table under a div tag with class sqlrv-ParameterContainer. Write a jQuery or JavaScript function that will extract the full innerHTML from this div ie. the table content and then extract the table row information like the <label> or <input> tags.
Create your desired table structure with <table><tr><td>{extracted sections}</td><td></td></tr></table> or leave it to your requirement...
Then just append this new HTML structure in place of the original default structure.
In jQuery it will be like
$(".sqlrv-ParameterContainer").html();
which will give you the entire table structure that comes inside the parameter. Use XML parsing and get the input controls and all. Extract these controls as-is, don't change anything.
$(".sqlrv-ParameterContainer table").remove(); // it will remove the SSRS rendered default table from DOM
$(".sqlrv-ParameterContainer table").appendChild('<table><tr>......</tr></table>'); // Append your custom html structure here....
This was something that came to my mind quickly... I would suggest you test it... :)
This doesn't help the OP with SSRS-2008 but in case it helps others - Microsoft have improved this in SSRS 2016 - parameters can now be easily managed via the GUI in Report Builder / Visual studio:
