  I’m trying to set the background image on a CPL report to only appear on the first page - is this even possible?

  The background image is set in code (as the image can be different based on certain code flow within the application)

  If this is not possible, what would be the best solution?

  That is certainly an “interesting” way of working around it - I will give this a try.

  We use the PageDocument LocateDataSource to populate the data source in our report - is that going to be a problem “nesting” the report like that?

  Hello,

  No. It works fine. Also, I have checked at my end for confirmation.

  Thanks,
