When printing multiple copies RB actually sends requests for multiple copies
rather than asking for multiple copies from the printer. Thus this would be
a problem if you use the copies feature of the printer driver.

Set StretchWithParent property on the lines. This will cause them to strech
with the memo. ParentHeight won't do that.

Where are the lines placed in relation to the memo. If the lines are
position above the memo and print first and then the memo goes to print and
overflows this is not considered overflow as far as the lines are concerned
if they have … -
The Detail-Subreport feature was discontinued due to the confusion it
created in context with subreports. However the engine should still support
reports created with the older versions of RB utilizing this feature.

Instead of submitting the entire print job you can individually send each
TppPage object to the printer device. You then should be able to query the
printer for it's state to make sure that the voucher printed properly and if

What you can do is set the PrinterSetup.PrinterName to Screen. The report

Upgrade to the latest printer driver for the HP LJ 5. The next thing to do
is to make the data access as fast as possible, which means using in memory
datasets.

Be sure you are running 6.03. There was a problem in one of the older
version of RB which was causing the printer intialization logic to fire too
often.
You can try the demo of 6.03 to test the performance:

Take a look at the NewReportFromWiz method in the ppDsgner unit which sets
up the report wizard and executes it. You can certainly create a descendant

You can create a single report which contains nothing but the title band and

There is a patch available that addresses the issue of certain printer
settings not being saved between preview and printing. This might be able to
address your issue. Please email support@digital-metaphors.com to request

Hi Felix,
I keep trying to email you a patch from your emails to support@, but the
email I send is always returned. Can you send us an email address which is
valid? Thanks.

D…It doesn't seem like it is being supported for Delphi 6. You should be able
to rebuild the package yourself for Delphi 6 however.

Is there anything else being done between subsequent generations that could
contribute to this? You could add RBuilder/Source to the Library Path and
see at which point RB is crashing out.

1. Try rotating the barcode to offset the rotation performed by the printer.
2. Check out the Friends=>RCL section at www.digital-metaphors.com for the
RotatedText component.

any replacements for the query designer that anyone else has developed which
we know of either.

Digital …You have to print the report in order for it to generate, however you can
simply print to an offscreen device. Create a dummy device, hook it into the
report, and call PrintToDevices on the report to generate it.

Cheers,…What exactly do you need to do. Do you simply need to display graphics or do
you need to draw in the band. There is a free paintbox component available
which lets you draw directly to the canvas. Check out the friends->rcl
section …You can probable use the CrossTab component for this. Check out
RBuilder\Demos\CrossTabs for demos of using the crosstab.
