Passing vales to Reportbuilder

rbuser

I am looking for a why to load a parameter or a messagedlg to get a
entered value to print on my report. This value would be different each time
I print so I need to enter it in manually. I would like to use a messagedlg
but a variable in my Form passing to Reportbuilder would work also. How can
I do this?
thanks, MIKE

Hi,

the autosearch feature is what you are looking for.

Hmmmm,
I'm not sure that AutoSearch is what you looking for.
Are you just trying to set the value of a Label.Caption?

Hi,

rereading the first post, I think you are right. Within my solution every report has
properties for captions, .. . I set them after the report create. And the report
prints them.

enjoy,
Ron.

If you want to make this specific for a single report, then you could use
RAP and a pass through function to get a value from your Delphi code. Make
the call in the GlobalOnCreate event in Rap. Just assign the text to a
label's caption as suggested.
