RB17 TableGrid

rbuser

Just installed RB17Ent in DXE8Pro. Decided to try using a TableGrid in a
current report. There seems to be little if any info available for the
component other than RB Help which doesn't say much about "how to" usage.

When I drop the control on the report in designer, it defaults to one
row and three columns. What is the proper procedure for adding columns
and/or rows to the grid? If I right-click on the object in the report
tree, then click Column/Add, I get an immediate "List index out of
bounds (3)" error. Same result if I modify the ColCount property
directly. It's interesting, however, that the report tree shows that a
new column has been created, but if I click on it (or any other column
object at that point) I get an Access Violation.

If I do nothing else, close the RB Designer, then try to close Delphi, I
get the same "List Index..." error several more times, before Delphi
actually closes with another AV (EInvalidPointer).

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks.

Hi Howard,

I researched this and it’s a Delphi design-time bug - one that I thought I
had fixed in pre-release testing. We're working on a new RB 17 build to
resolve this issue and a few others.

The error does not occur in the run-time designer, in case you're interested
in a work around.




Best regards,
