It is kinda tricky, because you want to show a modal form/dialog so that
execution will continue in the report generation process. You could use an
autocreated form in your project. Before you call Report.Print, you can set

You'll have to write a RAP pass through function that you call from RAP
which sets a Delphi variable's value to the RAP global variable value.

RAP pass-thru functions are the way to go on this one.

I assume you mean RAP global variables/constants. You could provide these
values from the report to you Delphi code via a pass through function that
you would call from RAP to which sets variables in your Delphi code. To set

Instead of using Report.GetAutoSearchDescriptionLines, you could write your

We haven't decided on if and when we'll have a beta version. This decision

Currently, views don't come through into DADE as tables. You'll have to

You'll have to get an add on device from Waler's TExtraDevices or Pragnaan's

BTW, does setting Report.Detail.BandsPerRecord to 2 not work? This should be
the property to use, if you only need to print a detail band twice on a
page. Sorry I didn't mention this earlier.

Ok, you'll need to specify a bottom offset so that you can get the blank
space at the bottom of the page. You could also use a start new page group
to get this behavior. I'll assume you've already got this handled. Now, as
each page… -
Sorry, I misunderstood what you wanted. I think the best way would be to
use a subreport in the detail band which will print the customer copy. You
could also try to use two subreports. One would print the merchant copy and

You can use a TppVariable in each of the subreports. In each of their
OnCalc event handlers, you can update the value of a TppVariable in the main
report's summary band, along with each of their own values. You don't have
