                Use the PageStyle band. It will print behind all other bands in the report.
You'll need to resize the band's height to be the height of the page.

                It may be easier to do this on the data side, before the report is run. On
the detail query, add to the sql where clause so that it does not pull a
record if the field value is zero or less. In your case, you will want a

                Glad to hear it is working. There is a code sample in the techtips
newsgroup in the richtext thread, which uses an intermediate memory stream
to load richtext.

Try settin the Richtext component's Transparent property to False. Many
printer drivers don't support transparency.

There are two dialogs. There is a link dialog in DADE that was fixed,
however, the 'datapipeline on the form' link dialog does show a problem with
large fonts. Thanks for reporting it, we'll fix this.

You can fully control the display formats. Here is a demo of this:

You should be good to go. We fixed a conversion issue with a TeeChart
report. The case is when the report was saved on a form in RB5.x and the
series object wasn't converted properly to RB6.x. We do have a patch for
this.
You can break a report up by setting a range on the master query. You will
have to use a TppVariable in the report to show the proper page count. The
page count will have to be strored by your application after each report has

You'll need to recompile the DADE plugin for IBX. The demo version doesn't
provide the source you need. If you do have a full version then you have
the source to recompile.

Most printers don't handle transparency very well.
