This need support from model or engine?
Comment 2 Ivy Li CLA 2007-07-20 09:47:40 EDT
I think this is run report option setting.
Comment 3 Wei Yan CLA 2007-07-23 22:40:11 EDT
henry, can you give me the use cases of the starting page number? so we can decide if it is a design feature or run time feature.

thanks.
Comment 4 Wei Yan CLA 2008-05-28 22:29:52 EDT
defer to next major milestone. We need resolve most of the page-break/page-number/page-script issues together.
Comment 5 Wei Yan CLA 2009-04-27 23:30:00 EDT
defer to RC1 due to resource limitation.
Comment 6 Wei Yan CLA 2009-05-15 03:41:29 EDT
The user can use the page variable to implement this feature, see the attached example in 159857
