  I can think of two possible approaches to implementing a solution:

  Delphi applications do not inherently manage the application, taskbar, or

  when it happens is important also.

  I do not know whether its possible. You might try accessing the

  their buttons. Then hide the button.

  Try calling DataPipeline.Close for the datapipeline to which the dataset is
  connected.
  
  If you find that you need to call methods that RAP does not know about, then
  you can easily extend RAP. See the following article.

  The data that you assign to the chart series needs to be linked to the
  master data.
  
  Example: Report.DataPipeline is customer. Chart displays order information
  related to the customer. Link Order to Customer data.
