[sqr-users] set-delay-print command and Page X of Y

[Jyotsna Nekkanti <jyotsnan2@yahoo.com>]

Should set-delay-print command be only used in "after procedure" of the 
on-break command? 
 
I tried using it in the before procedure command and it says that the PRINT 
DELAY statement did not have a SET-DELAY-PRINT command executed against it.
 
I am trying to print Page X of Y on the header. I need it to reset with the 
change in the purchase requisition number. 
 
For that I have
 
!*****************************************************************************
!main
!*****************************************************************************
begin-select
pr.prnum                                  &prnum1 () on-break print=never
                                                                            
before=page_count
.
.
.
 
!*****************************************************************************
! procedure page_count
!*****************************************************************************
begin-procedure page_count
  move #page-count to $last_page 8888
  new-page
  set-delay-print $last_page with $last_page 
  move 1 to #page-count
end-procedure
 
!*****************************************************************************
! print heading on each page.
!*****************************************************************************
begin-heading 4
.
.
.
 print $last_page         (,#Pagepos4,4) delay
.
.
end-heading
 
If I use "after" instead of "before", I get Page X of Y but in addition to that 
it prints the Y part in the body of the report as well. And if i scan through 
each and every page of the report, the Y part mysteriously disappears from the 
body of the report. But I am sure the users wouldnt want to go through each and 
everypage before printing the report.
 
Please help..
 
Thanks.
