    1. Create new band.
    2. Give it a label (say TitlePage)
    3. Fill in use field: ?TitlePage
    3. In Report props button -> Filters tab select your band label
(TitlePage) and write "false" as filter statement.
    4. In ThisWindow.OpenReport after parent call:
      IF ~ReturnValue
         PRINT(RPT:TitlePage)
      END
    5. If you want to print  your title page on a separate page check "Page
after" box
