Ok, you want them to print all the way down. To get the labels to reprint,
you could create a group around the main report detail band so that it
prints once a week. Maybe a master-detail configuration linking on a
calculated "day o… -
You can set Subreport.ParentWidth := false. Resize it in the main report so
that you can place the labels in the main report next to the subreport.
If this doesn't work out, you can try adding a column and updating the draw

You can set the DetailBand.ColumnTraversal property to ctLeftToRight. There
is one problem though, the subreport LeftToRight traversal setting in a
detail subreport is broken but has been fixed for the next release. It

BorCon ended about 2.5 weeks ago, so it is still safe to say that the time
frame for release is still 2-3 months away:)

We were successful in showing the server edition in action. We didn't have
any slides, as we coded the server application, thin client application and
web application on the fly. It only takes a few lines of code, because you

Look in TppCustomPrinter class in ppPrintr.pas. It has some read-only

Thanks for pointing this out. I am sorry you are having such difficulty
with our demos.
I installed IBO 4.2 into Delphi 6. Copied the latest daIBO.pas (IBO plugin)
from the IBOPipeline download which is available from IBO's web… -

Is the text alignment set to left justified? If you shift the headings to
the left, does the problem go away?
I just created and printed a report to report text file with different
columns and different fonts and it works fine:… -
Please see demo #107 in the main report demo project in your RBuilder
installation. You need to use a fixed width font just like the dmeo does,
and space the controls to mapo to the character grid in the text file.

What hardware was this on? Are you using a different printer, printer
driver? Download the latest printer driver. The disk probably was really
out of memory. You can try to print the jobs in batches, instead of sending
them all on… -
Yes, you have to rebuild the IBO DADE plugin package with the latest
daIBO.pas from IBO. I can email you the DADE plugin Delphi package with
daIBO.pas if you don't have it working yet.

Soon, we should have the Developer's Guide, 3rd Edition, in PDF format which
you can download from our website.

Lauchlan,
I spent a couple of hours today, out of my development time, downloading and
installing IBX 6.03 and IBO and figuring out why they didn't work with the
RB 6.03 demos. Now, the demos are working here on my machine and … -
I just downloaded and installed IBX 6.03. The auto incremented values
weren't coming back after we posted a new record for the new report
template. It would come back as NULL when we tried to query it and this
would blow up in the r… -
Are you using Teechart? Contact www.Teemach.com for info on building

which ships with Delphi.

1. You can use the DetailBeforePrint event to check the number of records
and print a message label if a condition is met. There is also a
NoDataBehavior property for the entire report.

Drop a DBGrid on the form and connect it to the dataset to which the
ADOQuery is connected. Does the first record show up in the grid?

I have D5 (UP #1), IBX 5.03, RB 6.03 end user example working with the
TIBTables, not TIBDatasets. In the meantime you can use the TIBTables.
What does your SQL look like for the TIBDatasets? The problem is that the
autoincrement val… -
There is also property setting change you need to make on the TIBTable
components. TIBTable.ForcedRefresh should be set to true and it will begin
working with IBX 6.03.

Check into the Pragnaan (www.pragnaan.com) and the Waler (www.waler.com)
device for PDF output. There are two options for printing multiple report

If the printer driver doesn't support transparency, then you could send the
output pages to an RB addon image device. They are available from
www.waler.com or www.pragnaan.com and then send the image to the printer.

It sounds like a printer driver problem, since it works in some and not
others. Upgrade to the latest printer driver from the manufacturer for the
problematic pritners.

This is happening because the second time the designer runs it doesn't know
that settings have changed and that it need to reinitialize itself. Add the

Try changing the line
Pct := (Amt / Tot) * 100;
to
Pct := (Double(Amt) /(Double( Tot)) * 100.0;
because it is probably performing integer division.

Since the calculation work for most of the record it isn't likely that that
is where the problem lies. One thing to check would be the DisplayFormat of
the variable. It is possible that the percentages are coming out small
