Try exiting ReportBuilder and Delphi and then delete RBuilder.ini from
Windows\System.

1. One option is to use the RB 10 Theme support to select a theme that
reflects the user interface style that you prefer. See article below.
2. Another option is to create a Preview plug-in. See ppPreview.pas for the

RB

run here. Email in zip format to support@digital-metaphors.com and…
No. Try connecting that to a ClientDataSet and then use the client dataset
to save the data to .cds or .xml. I think that will work.
This is not a known issue.
Does this happen with all reports? If it only happens with specific reports,
try to determine what is different. Also try running the demos included with
RB.

Try contacting tech support for TExtraDevices and GridPack (this is not an
RB issue.)
You need to include a reference to the grid pack unit(s) in the 'uses'
clause of your server, webtier, and client applications. That's the bottom
line.
See details below...

Try adding the relevant units to the report server application and to the
webtier applicaiton and/or client application.
Report Server -----> (grid draw commands) ---> WebTier
(grid component)
1. One solution is to use RB Server Edition. This provides a multi-tier
solution. A multi-threaded report server can run as a windows service and a
webtier application can handle the generation of the web browser inteface

Done. Thanks for reporting this. The correct .rc file is installed, but the
rbDade.deu is old.
I do not recall whether any new strings were added for DADE - probably not.
Thanks for reporting this, we will fix it for the next maintenance
release...
Thanks for reporting this issue. We created a patch to RB 10.01 that
corrects it. Registered users can email support@digital-metaphors.coms and
request the patch.
For the layout, try something like this..
- create a new report
- remove the header and footer
- set detail band height to 0.5 inch
- set margins to 0
Some issues that you may encounter

I had researched this in the past and never could find a solution. However
today I researched it again and had a break thru. This will be fixed for the
next maintenance release.
There is a patch available for RB 10.01 that fixes this issue. Email
support@digital-metaphors.com to request the patch file.
Unicode support is something that we would very much like to add.
Borland has indicated that they will be adding Unicode support to the VCL.
Since ReportBuilder is built on top the VCL (although we do also use native

We enhanced this for the next maintenance release. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks for the feedback
In all honesty our knowledge of barcode symbologies is lacking.
The RB barcode components originated as a stand alone barcode component that
we acquired from another company. The original dev…
If the printer is changed, then the report has to be regenerated. There is
code in ReportBuilder to detect when the printer has changed and reset the
report engine and page cache if this occurs. Thus it can auto detect whether
Set Report.PassSetting to psTwoPass.
Check the Help | About box of the Report Designer to dtermine the exact
version you are using. If you are not using RB 10.01, then please email

- My thinking was that by creating a run-time example and adding
RBuilder\Source to the Delphi library path, the debugger would break on the
exception and show where the error ocurrs. You could also examine the call
stack, et…
Try modifying your library path to include RBuilder\Source and then perform
a run-time test using the tech tip below. Create a project and compile with
debug info. Configure the Delphi debugger to break on language exceptions.
We have not announced a release date. An estimate would be end of this year.
You can set the Report.Language property after loading the report
definition. That would enable you to specify the language that is being
used. Note, that this will modify the language being used for RB user

This is controlled via the Report.Language property.
