Ronald,
So your example was FOR groupings, yes? I still don't get what you mean. My report may have groupings, but if it doesn't, what is done differently? Any clue?

>>>The way we did this was to have two layouts: one without "X of N" and one with. Using the first layout, print the report for each value you're grouping by and store the end page numbers with the appropriate key to a cursor (i.e. if you're grouping by some value and that group header band is set to reset the page number to 1, then you will need to store the last page number for each value). Then using the second layout you can reference cursor and provide the "N" value. I know this sounds sloppy but I haven't found another way around this.
