You'll have to set the page height of the report to be able to fit all of
the detail bands which fit. This will result in a single page which
includes the entire report. This height can be calculated beforehand by
multiplying the st… -
The subreports are printing as designed. The section style subreports print
order is based upon their ZOrdering in the band and not on their relative
position in the band. You can change their ZOrder by using SendToBack and

You could also create two reports. One report is for screen previewing and
the other report is for printing on the printer. The screen report would

Yes, there is a trick. You have to generate the report with subreports to a
cache in a generic device. It will use the default driver to determine the
pagination. Once the pages are in the cahce, then you can reorder the pages

Make sure that the controls are contained in the region by checking the
report tree or by moving the region around. The region should be able to
keep these components together. If not, then can you send us a simple

Additionally, a visual repository of reports would be a nice feature to
have, especially from an end user's standpoint. It is possible to replace
the new report dialog (all forms in RB are replaceable) and have it show

You could create a descendent of TppReport which can be used in the report
designer at runtime to create new reports. See code below. Place the code
your would like in the constructor, then you can create reports based off of

B. You can compile your application with run time packages, just as you
would in any Delphi app. This would let you make your app more dynamic in

One thing you can do is set the PrinterName of the Report's PrinterSetup
property to Screen.

You actually need to go through the dataviews and reset them to force them
to reretrieve data. Here is a method which will accomplish this for you. You
still should call Report.Reset, especially if you are caching pages.

Hi Mark,
Still cannot reproduce it. RB6.03, tested with D5 and D6 with Interbase.
Record 2 is "Jane " and record 3 is "Jane". Both DBCalcs sum out to 21. Can
you please send your project to support@digital-metaphors.com.I reproduced your example by following the steps below but was not able to
reproduce the problem. The sum came out to 21 in both cases. What were the
sums you got the second time around? The only known problem that causes
DBCalcs to n…Take a look at WPTool, http://www.wptools.de/. They have components capable
of that.

Even in an end user report, behind the scenes, pipelines and tables are
created and data is cached. You can manually go through the data view's and
close their pipelines. Do you have any code executing with the report? If
