Steps to Accomplish
Open
Report Template Designer
.
Select
File > Open
and open the report template to be modified.
Switch to the
Designer
view by clicking the Designer tab along the bottom of the
Report Template Designer
.
Drag a PageInfo control from the Standard Controls toolbar (
View > Toolbars > Standard Control
) or the Standard Controls area of the Tool Box (
View > Windows > Tool Box
) to the desired area of the template. The PageInfo control looks like a box containing the text “1/1” after it is inserted.
Click the
>
arrow that appears on the upper right of the box for the control placed on the template. This should reveal a
Page Info Tasks
pop up.
On the
Page Info Tasks
pop-up, set the
Page Info
field to “Current Date and Time”.
On the Page
Info Tasks
pop-up click the
[...]
button near the

dialog will appear.
Choose "Date and Time" from the Category list on the left.
Select the desired format, using the Preview area as a guide. Click
OK
when finished.
Click elsewhere on the template to close the
Page Info Tasks
pop-up
Right-click the page info control that was inserted and select
Properties.
Use the Property Grid to set properties such as font style and size for the PageInfo control.
Preview the report by clicking the
