Hi
In an app for Short Term Insurance we must print the Clients'
Policies.
No of Pages may vary but the Last page is always the same. i.e.
General Terms and Conditions. How do I handle that.
Create it in Word and scan it in? As what? WMF ? etc
Thanks

Hi Johan,

I would keep it in a text file (can be edited) and read the text into a
detail band that prints the text one line at a time after all of your report
has printed.

Hi
Can you elaborate on this text file, please.
Do you mean someting like NotePad, what about fonts and Underlining
etc. then? How do I place it in the detail band?
Thanks

Johan,

if you want to use fonts and underlining (etc.) create the page as a
graphic, format depends on what software you have available (you could use
Paint to get a BMP). The graphics format may be WMF, BMP, PCX, GIF and JPG.
I would go with JPEG or GIF to keep the size down, although WMF will work
OK.

You can paste the following into your report definition.

detail2 DETAIL,AT(250,250,8000,10500),ALONE,ABSOLUTE
IMAGE('C:\CW20\IMAGES\CONDITI1.WMF'),AT(250,250,8000,10500),USE(?Image1)
END


You may be best of to create a detail band with absolute and alone
attributes and put an image onto the band, select your graphics file as
content and then to resize it to your page size. You must set a detail
filter as FALSE, that will prevent the detail from printing (unless you
force it to print).

After your report has printed BeforeClosingReport embed you can insert
PRINT(RPT:detail2)
Hope this does the trick for you.
