I am using the Crystal Report Viewer in an ASP.NET application. On the viewer it displays the page numbers along the lines of ‘1 / 1+’ where the 1+ is dynamically calculated. I would like it to display the correct total number of pages from the start rather than 1+. Is there a way to do this?

I think a number of the examples online recommend that you navigate to the last page and then back to the first, but I don’t think this is a good way of handling it. I have yet to have the need to do this for any of my projects so I haven’t had to try to find a work around yet.

Ok, after looking at this just now I realized that if you add the “Page N of M” special field it does the dynamic calculation at runtime. In my testing it will do the dynamic calculation even if you choose to suppress the field by checking the suppress box in the field properties. Granted the dynamic calculation might be slower for larger reports, this is probably just as good as programmatically navigating to the last page and back to the first. Hope this helps.
