Use the summary band which only prints on the last page. If you still want
to use your approach, to turn the label off use the detail band's
BeforePrint event to toggle the visibility of the label.

As long as you followed all the directions and set your Library Path to
RBuilder\Source then just build your project. Keep in mind that these
changes will apply at runtime, not design time.

You can use an event to format the text yourself though I doubt that would
be easier than the previous solution. If you need 30 to 40 calc fields
coming from fields of the same data type you can do this with a simply loop
rather than … -
You can create a calculated field of string type and use the OnCalcFields
event of the data set to format the float as a string using FormatFloat or
something of the type.

Actually this wasn't a critical issue. At some point a decision was made
that the margin was needed for a more visually appealing rendering of
RichText. You should not enounter any issues by removing the margin.

This was added a while ago to address an issue with the alignment of the
text. A permenant fix would obviously be to shift the richtext components to
align them. This could be done programatically with a loop like the one
below. You c… -
Some printers/printer drivers do not support grayscale very well. Which
printer/printer driver are you using. Make sure you have the latest version
of that driver. Otherwise you might have to simply stay away from using

doesn't do it by default. Keep in mind that this is a modification to the
source of RB. You will need to build from the Source rather than the Lib

as the parameter list (Params) contains the correct username and password.

You might have to resync your newgroup. Remove the entire digi-meta account
and subscribe again. This should redownload all the new messages.

If the pipeline is not it a chain that is connected to a report the property
will not be saved. If this is a necessary case then you can reassign the
relationship on code.
P.S. You posted to the Pipelines newsgroup twenty minute…When are the labels being created and when is the property being set (i.e.

That should be ppLabel1.Font.Style. Also make sure that whichever event you
are using is being reconnected if the report is being loaded from a
template.

For one reason or another RB thinks that the last richtext requires more
space when it reaches the bottom of the page. First check the BottomOffset
of the component is 0 to make sure that no bottom offset is being generated.
