Ooof. I had thought of that after I hit send, but didn't have a better answer for you.

Try this.

Initialize num_o_pages to 0

Do you know the trick to capture the number of pages in the report? Its basically to issue the report form command with noconsole at the end, and don't put to print, or to file. Then check the value of _pageno. It should be the number of the last page of the report.

Place that into num_o_pages then under print_when of the copyright notice, put _pageno = num_o_pages.

Good luck!
