David,
Just use the logic that Razzak used for Zebra style reports. In the
Before Generate EEP of the Report define a counter variable:
set var vCounter integer = 0
Then in the Report Footer, in the Before Generate EEP, put the following
code:
IF vcounter = 0 THEN
SET VAR vcounter = 1
PROPERTY region1 left '0'
ELSE
SET VAR vcounter = 0
PROPERTY region1 left '6'
ENDIF
The reason I used a region is because I used it as a container to hold both
the PAGE NUMBER system variable and the PAGE COUNT system variable and two
Labels so I could do: "Page n Of c" where n is the page number and c is
the count. Also the Property command for it, the numbers are in INCHES from
the left, not pixels or such.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Page Numbers Different Odd/Even in Reports
Thishas got to be right up there with dumb question of the day.I know you
can do all kinds of great thingswith page numbering in R:Base reports in
7.6.But I?m trying to do something that seems really straightforward to
meand can?t see how.The client wants ODDnumber page numbers to appear in the
lower LEFT corner of the page, and EVENnumber pages to appear in the lower
RIGHT corner.#PAGE is no longer recognized as a variableso my plan of
setting up two variables, one that would show ?PAGE? and thenumber if #PAGE
was even, blank if it was odd, doesn't work.What simple option am I missing?
