Check out the installed RAP demos main project. They show how to change the
font color for fields based on the numeric data. The demo report is #12
which shows how to do this.

First, it is not a good idea to create component in the BeforeGenerate event
because if that event is fired more that once you'll create unwanted
component. You can do it either before you call the Report.Print or in the
global OnCrea… -
I tried reproducing this with a region of multiple charts and stretching
components that would puch the chart region to overflow onto a new page, but
with no luck. The remaining charts properly finished printing on the

You can toggle different content in headers/footers based on the page number
using the header's/footer's BeforePrint event. For example, let's say we
have an image which we want to only appear on the even pages and a label

The installed DBISAM demo should work. I am running DBISAM 3.10 with the
latest daDBISAM DADE plugin from Jon's website. The data dictionary works
fine in our tests here. The RB installed daDBISAM you have in your

Is description a text or a memo field? Wordwraping on a text field won't
cause it to stretch. Use a memo field instead.

You can use TExtraDevices to render the report pages to a bitmap. One you
have the bitmap there probably multiple ways you can come up with to rotate
the image. The one that immediately comes to mind is to simply rotate the
bitmap ma… -
There are two options that come to mind. You can either render the final
output to a bitmap and rotate the bitmap. The other options, which I think
will produce more faithful results and give you more control is to create

Try using an in memory dataset, rather than a stored proc, to retrieve your
data locally and optimize report execution.

Jpeg is a lossy format so unless you minimize compression and maximize
quality you will usually lose a great deal of information. A lossless format
such as a device independent bitmap would be much better. EMFs (enhanced
WMFs) are a p… -
This is more easily done in RichText. The memo won't support multiple
fonts.
The only other way to do this without the rich text component is to
dynamically create TppDrawText objects (one for each line of memo text) and

There is no converter that we are aware of. You could extract the SQL text
from the queries you build with shazaam and dynamically create query
dataviews in DADE. Then assign the SQLtext directly to the dataviews. The

Are you coming from a previous installation? Sometime the earlier packages
are not cleaned up correctly and a corrupt install results. You can try
doing a corrupt cleanup install.

As per the first error, select Select Component->Install Packages and make
sure that all the RB packages are checked, specifically Data Access for ADO.
TeeChart 5.01 is fully supported in RB 6.03. You could try reinstalling RB,You can use a Delphi TRichEdit and use this before running the report in

You could set the band to be visible = True in the Report.BeforePrint event.
Then set it to visible = False in the band's AfterGenerate event.

There is an example of this technique:

FStream: TMemoryStream;
procedure MenuRevertOnClick(Sender: TObject);
public

end;

…Check out the AutoSearch demos found in RBuilder\AutoSearch. You can create
a dialog to query values from the user and then inject them into the query
object.

Digital MetaphorsAre there any empty bands at the end of the report, ie. a group footer band

Please do not crosspost.
