custom page number issue

[wingfield65]

Hello,

I've created a custom page number so that it resets on change in a particular column.  I've not been able to get this to work.  On a lark, I added the variable to the header (I already had it on the footer).  Bizarrely, the header works as I intended.  My intent was for it to reset to page 1 whenever a new county came up.  can someone advise why my custom page doesn't work on the footer??  I'd really prefer to have my pages on the bottom.  I also put the county at bottom just to see if it was doing something different on the grouping, but I'll remove this once I get the pages to work properly.

thank you,

this did not work.  it just put page numbers on top of each other.

Hello,

 

Please create a variable for the page number as seen in the attached screenshot and use it in the Page footer. I am also attaching a sample report which I have created using the Foodmart employee table where I was able to achieve your requirement.

that did not work.  it simply puts sequential page number on each page.
