{ 
    this.reportInfo1.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 10.0!)
    this.reportInfo1.FormatString = "Page {PageNumber} of {PageCount} on {RunDateTime}" 
}
Private Sub Detail1_Format(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Detail1.Format
    Me.ReportInfo1.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 10.0!)
    Me.ReportInfo1.FormatString = "Page {PageNumber} of {PageCount} on {RunDateTime}"
End Sub
