Rave Reports Visual Designer

DestPIVar property

Default:

' ' (empty)

Component/Class:

Page, ProjectManager, Report

Description:

Initializes the value of a PIVar (Post Initialize Variable). Any PIVars of the same name that were previously printed will show this value. PIVars are normally printed using the Data Text Editor of the DataText component. The main difference between PIVars and parameters is that PIVars will use the value that is set after (in print order) the PIVar while parameters print the value that was set before. A common use for PIVars is to print a total in a header band that would be initialized later in the footer band. This works even across multiple pages.

Note:

Report . AlwaysGenerate must be true if you are using PIVars in your report.
