Crystal report Impossible to convert to RS?

I am trying to re-create a report in RS which we currently have in Crystal.
The report does a grouping of data based on client. There should be an
"address" page in-between each of the client's data pages which displays the
client name and address (for an envelope). This page should not have a page
footer. Also, the client's data pages should have a footer with page numbers
but the numbering for the pages should be re-set for each client. For example:
First printed page: CLIENT A Address page (no footer)
Second printed page: CLIENT A Data page (displays "page 1 of 1" in footer)
Third printed page: CLIENT B Address page (no footer)
Fourth printed page: CLIENT B Data page (displays "page 1 of 2" in footer)
Fifth printed page: CLIENT B Data page (displays "page 2 of 2" in footer)
Sixth printed page: CLIENT C Address page (no footer)
Seventh printed page: CLIENT C Data page (displays "page 1 of 1" in footer)
I can do the "address" page by creating a group header at the top of my
table which is the same size as a regular page. The problem for me is:
How do I have a footer displaying the page number only on the data pages?
How do I reset the page numberign for each client (or grouping)?You won't be able to get the "of X" part of the page report, but you can
reset the page number using a little custom code. Basically you define a
static variable for the report and reset it every time the grouping item
changes.
