Print a line on the last or second from last page

I'm using Oracle Report 10.1.2.3.0.
I'd like to print a line on the last page of a report if the report has an odd number of pages or the second from last page of a report if the report has a even number of page. It is the later second from last requirement I'm struggling with. Can anyone help me solve this problem please?
The reason for this is that we are purchasing an envelope inserter that using Optical Mark Recognition (a series of lines on the side of the page). This only reads on the front side of a piece of paper, so when performing a duplex print the marks need to be on the odd page numbers. In this case I need to apply a mark on the front side of the last piece of paper.
Thanks

Hi InoL
Thank you for your response. I have seen similar solutions to this and have investigated them. Although they give you a work around to know the total number of pages in PLSQL, they only give you a way of knowing this once the report has completed formatting the last page. Unfortunately, my requirment is to know when I'm on the second from last page to perform some conditional formatting. I don't think knowing the total number of pages at this stage is going to be possible in reports, therefore I was hoping someone may know a "clever trick" to achieve this.
Thanks
Neil

Query on reading infotype 0001 using the macro rp-provide from last p0001

Dear Friends,
        I have a question rgarding relating the infotype 0001 when we are using in the program the logical database PNP.
iam using rp-provide-from-last p0001 space sydatum sydatum
        if pnp-sw-found eq 1.
        append p0001 into i_p0001.
        endif.
iam getting a problem in production , in the selection screen iam passing for emloyee subgroup with multiple values option.
i have passed E,H,S -> where E means Executive , H means hourly and S means salaried employee...
one particular scneario is iam having an employee whose
employee subgroup is C (contactor) and on the selection screen if am passing this personnel no and on the selection screen iam only having in the multiple selection option only E,H,S but not C so this record should should fail but it is getting success and appending to internal table i_p0001
which is wrong
, i mean to say the macro is getting success
rp-provide-from-last p0001 space sydatum sydatum
this employee .
my question is will the macro will not check on the selection screen the employee gropu which we have passed and should i exclusively check
if p0001-persk in pnppersk ?? or please let me knwo how to check this wrong employee not getting appended to my internal table.
please let me know
regards
madhuri

Hi Madhuri
The macro rp-provide-from-last p0001 will not fetch data from the database, it simply extracts the last record from the available internal table P0001[] for the time frame provided(as 3rd and 4th parameters). You can check the definition of the macro from the database table TRMAC, it simply uses the LOOP....ENDLOOP and IF conditions to arrive at the last record and populates the fields pnp-sw-found, pnp-sw-tabix.
    And coming to your problem, please check all the IT0001 records of the EE concerned, it can happen that the EE is attached to different employee subgroups in different time frames and hence the LDB is fetching all the available records of the EE (even if the employee subgroup is not among the one's selected in the selection screen). If this is the case, I reckon, u've to perform manual check before appending to the internal table.
Note: The macro rp-provide-from-last p0001 space sydatum sydatum will only fetch the valid IT0001record as on date - sy-datum

I have been trying for months to put iTunes on my laptop and kept getting installation errors in Windows 7. I gave up and just installed iTunes on my PC running XP.
Now I have to install Quicktime on the laptop and once again I get an installation error 0x800736FD.
All windows updates are fine, none failed.
I have removed all apple software from my laptop using CCleaner, common files and folders. Tried reinstalling and still the same error.
Could you offer any advice on how to get both quicktime and then iTunes working??
Thank you in advance

Transaction MM60 printing multiple lines for the same information

Transaction MM60 is printing the same information multiple times, meaning that the same materail is printing multiple times with the exact same information. Any ideas why?

It IS showing duplicate lines. The columns that I'm showing are:
Material
Plant
Val. Type
Material Description
Last Change
MTyp
Matl Group
Unit of measure
Purchasing group
ABC indicator
MRPType
Valuation Class
Price Control Indicator
Price
Currency
Price Unit
Created by
Every single field is identical and each material contains exactly eight rows of identical information. The interesting thing is that if I actually enter a material number, only one line shows (which is correct.) However, if I leave the material number blank and enter the material type, that's when we get multiple lines.
Any other ideas?

Need to print horizontal line at the end of main window in each page.

Hi,
I am printing a smartform with main window having 10 lines in footer. The problem I am facing is when the content extends upto two or more pages, I am not getting the horizontal line at the base of main window. For last page it is fine as it contains footer.
Please suggest how to proceed.
Thanks,
RKU

Hi,
If you don't have any frame set on your main window:
Go to output options and mark frames, and then go to details and uncheck checkboxes for above, laft and right, leving only below marked.
This will give you a line in the bottom of you main window.
If you dont' want to do this on the main window, can you create a new window placed at the bottom of the page and use this framing technic on that window. But in that case don't forget to mark the "always draw box and shading" checkbox. as this window contains no values, the will not get printed unless you mark this checkbox.

How to make a cell that recognized the second from last?

Two tables. First is data and second refers to the second to last column of the first which is always changing. The first table is a weekly table so it is constantly expanding. On that first table has a number that changes with it. I want the second table to show that changing number.

tue
wed

^ this is table one for week 1. my second table wants C3 to show on its table because it is a total.
However, by next week i will have added a new week onto this one

wed

since i have added, table 2 will still be showing C3 since i, at the time, set it to show the, then current, total.
Is there a way to make table two always refer to the the last column of the 3 row?

Hi gaksdd,
I am feeling bad. I am afraid that your spreadsheet will be ungainly and cranky and hard to update in the future. I want to say this much at least: Numbers tends to work best when the tables are longer than they are wide. I don't expect you to have this problem but while tables can have potentially thousands of lines they cannot have more than 256 columns. Many things will tend to work better if you orient your tables this way. As you are just beginning it makes sense to develop good habits and start thinking more like the program designers expect. It will pay off. If you ever decide to use iOS forms for data input they are designed to input data one row at a time. If you are inputing more than 1 number a day it would make sense to reorient your data table so the weeks run down the page.
INDEX(range,row-index,column-index,area-index)
You have specified a range.Then the first comma.
row-index is where you specify a row. In my example it was "2" for the second row in the range. This is where you would use ROWS(), before the second comma.
column-index is where I used COLUMN(). then the third comma.
We don't need area-index.
I get a certain pleasure in pushing this program in unusual ways and this certainly qualifies. It is not a best practice.
When you have your formula working, compare it to
=SUM(Table One::2:2)÷2 or the variation needed for your table. This way of working makes your report table more reliable.
Simpler is more robust, less likely to bite you in the butt down the line.

Printing a Line at the end of a Repeating Frame in Reports 6/6i

Hi Folks,
In few of my designed reports I want a horizontal boiler plate line drawn at the end of the repeating frame on each page. The Number of Records property of the repeating frame is set to 0, i.e., depending upon the margin allocated on each page the report should fetch as many records as they can fit in the allocated area of the frame. I have also set the Page Protect property of the repeating frame to Yes, since we want the description of the records to be displayed fully on each page i.e., a record displayed last on a page should have its description on one page and it should not go to the next subsequent page. Now when I draw a horizontal boiler plate line at the end of the repeating frame in the Layout Model and set its property to Print on all Pages, the line in few pages of the report does not print at all and on the rest of the pages it is displayed at its correct position. I have even tried using an Anchor but it still does not work. Do I need to set the property of the anchor or am I missing some basic point here?
TIA
Hassan

Hi there,
I have tried that but when the records are less in number on a page i.e., 1-2 then the line do prints on each page but there is a gap between the line and the last record.I want that the line should print right after the last record. Should I use an anchor here? But we cannot use an anchor between a line and the margin.
Any ideas??

How to print header lines at the top of every page with Alv list display?

Dear all,
I need a requirement with printing issue. A program list should be printed with the function reuse_alv_list_display.
The list has several pages and then can be printed but the header lines appear only first page when they printed. The other pages don't have header lines, they continue with the next record of the list remaining from previous page. I use the alv parameters as below:
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
      i_callback_program       = l_repid
      i_callback_pf_status_set = 'ALV_PF_STATUS'
      is_layout                = ls_layo
      it_fieldcat              = lt_fcat
      i_default                = 'X'
      i_save                   = 'A'
      is_variant               = ls_variant
      it_events                = lt_events
    TABLES
      t_outtab                 = lt_data
    EXCEPTIONS
      program_error            = 1
      OTHERS                   = 2.
and lt_events as below:
ls_event-name = 'END_OF_LIST'.
ls_event-form = 'ALV_END_OF_LIST'.
APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
ls_event-name = 'END_OF_PAGE'.
ls_event-form = 'ALV_END_OF_PAGE'.
APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
ls_event-name = 'TOP_OF_LIST'.
ls_event-form = 'ALV_TOP_OF_LIST'.
APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
ls_event-name = 'TOP_OF_PAGE'.
ls_event-form = 'ALV_TOP_OF_PAGE'.
APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
So, how can I print header lines for every page?
Best Regards,

Hello Saba,
Your point might be very close to solution.
Because in the selection screen of the program there are two radio buttons, one of them visits 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE' function and the other doesn't. The one which visits has a problem with header liens in every page when printing. But I couldn't find out the solution yet.
reuse_alv_list_display uses 4 event and of course I call subroutine. There are end_of_list, end_of_page, top_of_list and top_of_page. I use in the subroutine for top_of_page:
CALL FUNCTION 'LVC_TRANSFER_TO_SLIS'
    EXPORTING
      it_fieldcat_lvc         = gt_fcat
    IMPORTING
      et_fieldcat_alv         = lt_fcat
    EXCEPTIONS
      it_data_missing         = 1
      it_fieldcat_lvc_missing = 2
      OTHERS                  = 3.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_WIDTH_GET'
    EXPORTING
      it_fieldcat = lt_fcat
    IMPORTING
      e_width     = l_width.
WRITE l_reptx TO l_reptx CENTERED.
NEW-LINE.
WRITE: AT (l_width) l_reptx CENTERED.
SUBTRACT 10 FROM l_width.
WRITE: AT l_width sy-pagno RIGHT-JUSTIFIED.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE'
      EXPORTING
        it_list_commentary       = lt_header
I_LOGO                   =
I_END_OF_LIST_GRID       =
Do you have other suggestions ?

HP 3055 Prints a line down the page

I am having some trouble with an HP Laserjet 3055, when I print a page while the printer is 'cold' , a small strip 1/8" thick of garbage prints down the entire length of the page.. If I print more than one page the error gets smaller and smaller and around the 4th page the printer prints perfectly...
If I wait over a minute before printing another page the 'line' resurfaces.
I've tried different toner cartridges and have done the printers cleaning command, nothing has helped... Does anyone have any idea ?

I have similar problem with HP LaserJet 2430.
While printing, characters from each line are repeated at 3 inch intervals along the length of the paper at about 2 inches and 7 inches from the left margin that appear as two grey bands on the printout. The widths of the bands are approximately 2 characters and 8 characters. For example when a single line is printed the characters at 2 in and 7 in locations from the left margin repeat at 3, 6 and 9 inches down from the printed line and the intensity of the printing decreases.
For example if I print a printer test page, the HP logo at the top right corner will repeat with reducing intensity at 3, 6, and 9 inches from the first logo print.
Similarly if I print a word document with just one line of numbers 1234567890 repeated for the width, the numbers 23 at 2 inch and 67890123 at 7 inch from left margin will repeat every 3 inch along the length of paper (portrait mode) with decreasing intensity.
While printing documents with multiple lines this causes two grey vertical bands along the length of the paper.
