Hi Chris,

enlarge the region boundaries according to the size of the dynamic memo.
Hi Eric,
The DBPipeline will by default recreate the fields when it is assigned at
runtime. You need to set the TppDBPipeline.AutoCreateFields property to
False to disable this behavior and keep the field aliases you already

Try changing your the entery in your library path from \RBuilder\Lib\ to

The easiest way around this is to set the Report.CachePages to True. Note
that this will take up more memory resourses as each page is being cached in

Sorry about the delay in this response. I was able to download your example
and run it. I am however unable to see where any of the regions overlap
eachother. They all seem to line up correctly except for the bottom…Hi Chris,

In the Report Designer (design tab) on the Standard Toolbar at the top there

the DBCalc icon without the table in the background).

Refreshing the report at runtime from the preview is very similar to using
