I re-read your question and additional posts.
To create a query, access the Data workspace and select File | New..., then
use the Query Wizard or Query Designer to specify the query.

Simplest way to configure the delimited text export is to use the Designer's
File | Print To File Setup dialog. If you configure the report via code, in
addition to setting Component.Save, you need to set Band.Save.

Yes, all DataPipelines are supported: DBPipeline, JITPipeline, TextPipeilne,
CustomPipeline, ... A report treats them all the same, never knows to which
one it is connected.

I used D6 sp2 for my testing. In your original post you mentioned rbRCL126,
so by the package name I was able to determine you were using RB 12 for D6.in Builder Controls problems Comment by nardmoseley June 2010

I just tested this here and did not encounter any issues. I downloaded the
builder controls. I first did a simple run-time designer test, no issues.
Next I compiled the packages. I copied the BuilderControlsPackage to

Bert,
Please do not post attachments to the newsgroups. In Nico's prior reply he

For the project that will not compile, check the source directories for the
existence of an RB source code unit (.pas or .dcu). Make sure you have not
modified any RB source code.

I am able to apply the patches to my RB 12.01 installation here with no
issues.
1. Try following these instructions to clean up your existing installation.

ppFilDev. If you want to locate the unit in which a class is defined, use

You can use the same approach as shown in the rbWiki article you reference.
The ArchiveDevice has the same StartPrintJob/EndPrintJob boolean properties
as the PDFDevice, all the file devices in RB have these properties.

For RB 11 we added the ability to output multiple reports to a single file -
any type of file - archive, PDF, etc. This is done by using the
StartPrintJob and EndPrintJob boolean properties of the file device. We also

Issue is only on Citrix, then try updating the drivers on citrix or the

I reviewed the example. You need to create a separate lookup Query.
You are using the same query for the report and the lookup. Therefore when
you apply a search condition to the report query, the lookup list is built

> I see. When is the printer driver loaded?
RB does explicitly load any drivers. RB makes Windows API calls, that can
result in the printer driver being loaded. That can occur during design,
preview or print,Previewing a report will /not/ execute the ppPinter.EndDoc code and that is
the only RB code that calls Set8087CW.
Perhaps updating printer driver dll's for all user accounts would help.

D…> I see that in ppPrintr.pas the EndDoc saves and restores the FPU mak.
Correct. That code is necessary to workaround buggy printer drivers, but it
restores the prior state. We have not had any reports of RB causing issues
Use the lower portion of the dialog to specify which components to export.
The filetype only applies to delimited-text file output. It is ignored for
ExcelData export.

Use the File | PrintToFile Setup dialog to specify which bands and
components are exported to XLSData and TextFile. By default only detail
elements are exported. This is explained in the RBuilder help and in the
rbWiki here..…
For an example check out TppInspectorDialogItem.GetComponent in
ppInspector.pas.
