I'm attempting to show a sum in a table footer on a report. It will be in the body of the report and can't be in the header or footer. The table footer repeats on each page but should show the sum only on the last page. It will show another piece of text on all other pages. Is this possible?

Additional pieces of information: The detail part of the table isn't a consistent height, but the page is a consistent height. I can't assume a standard number of detail items per page.

Just to be clear. I was talking about adding it to table footer and not the page footer. It should still be in the page body.

I simply resolved it using ...

=iif(Globals!PageNumber=Globals!TotalPages,false,true)

Put that in the Expression editor for the HIDDEN property of all the objects/controls you have in your footer.

It will only show you the footer once the last page is processed.

I hope that's what you meant/want? Thanks

    Not OP, but I had a similar problem and this worked for me. Thanks! – thnkwthprtls Jun 16 '16 at 17:27
  • The downside of this is that the space reserved for the footer is still visible - as is shown [here in the comment section](https://thinkaboutit.be/2012/12/show-a-footer-only-on-the-last-page/) and I tested too :( This works if your footer is and the report itself has the same the same color, though. – Mauricio Arias Olave Jun 16 '20 at 21:56

try something like this

=iif(Globals!PageNumber=Globals!TotalPages,data,nothing)

Can you not just create a group that includes a group footer. Then in the group properties make sure that the "Repeat Group Footer" isn't checked and Sum() the total in the group footer?

Just add a textbox below the table. The textbox will be visible after the last page of the table.

Below solutions can help.

1. Create Functions to access Page Number in Body

2. Add a rectangle

Add a rectangle with required Textbox or other controls in it and set the visibility of Rectangle like below:

=IIF(code.PageNumber=code.TotalPages,false,true) 

This will show the Rectangle as Footer only on last page.

if you want it in the body, if the rest of the report's layout shifts dynamically, it won't render in the same spot. otherwise it should render in the same spot and you can just put it at the bottom of the last page.

remember, a page is 8 1/2 x 11. if you have 1 inch margins, the first page ends at 6.5 inches.

Hidden:

=iif(Globals!PageNumber=Globals!TotalPages,data,nothing)

use the above one on the hidden property of the footer.
