Sorry, about that. This has been fixed for the next maintenance release. You
should have all of you old reports and the old RB install program. Revert
back to RB5.56 for D5 and when we get the maintenance release out you can
reinstal… -
The text should print on a clipped region, however, it may not be supported
on some printer drivers. Make sure the latest printer driver is installed.
Does it print correctly when autosize is true?

Are you using RB 6.0? If the height of the dbText is smaller than what the
text height, then the part of the text that will fit should print within a
clipped region. It's working in tests here. This problem must only be

Thanks for already being a (legal) Enterprise user. Apologies for my
assumption. You may not absolutely need RAP, but it sure can make life
easier when facing a problem such as this. I was only trying to say that RAP

I went to download release for TeeChart 5.02, but I could only find a beta
version for D6.
Since we don't have a copy of their official D6 release, we have not yet
rebuilt our Teechart packages to support it.

What version are you using RB?Delphi? It works for me. You may have a

Also, since it made sense, I stuck it in the Get for the property read so it
should be in a future maintenance release.

Instead of calling Report.AutoSearchDescription(Memo.Lines) write your own
procedure:
procedure TForm1.GetAutoSearchDescriptionLines(aLines: TStrings);
var
liIndex: Integer;
begin
aLines.Clear;Glad to hear it.

IP2000 is the latest Infopower support that we provide. It looks like

appears to be working correctly when I create them. Perhaps I don't have it
setup just like yours, with the regions and ShiftRelativeTo. Could you

are still in development and it is not ready for release. We cannot provide

Go into the Component | Install Packages and try to install the package by

We have found that sometimes the calculations fire for variables/dbCalcs
when a band generates because it must generate to find if it will fit on a
page. So if the band doesn't fit on the page and you access the

If you want to make this specific for a single report, then you could use
RAP and a pass through function to get a value from your Delphi code. Make
the call in the GlobalOnCreate event in Rap. Just assign the text to a
label's cap…There is nothing to convert Crystal reports, yet. The only expert utility
that is available is one that has just been released by Jim Waler. It

1. The column width is determined by the crosstab renderer and isn't fixed
width because there is no text wrapping. You can write your own crosstab
renderer, though it isn't the easiest thing to do, but it is possible.

The following is an example that displays the QueryDesigner. I think the

in Execute Query Wizard Without going into the Report Designer Comment by digitalmetaphors July 2001I went into D5 and created a report with a TeeChart and a DBTeeChart in the
