Hi Mojoala,
Usually when the output in the preview differs from the the output of the
printer, there is some event code or data processing that is confusing the
report engine during report generation. As a test, try commenting … -
Mojoala,

Harry,
If you install TeeChart 6.01, then install ReportBuilder 7.03, the packages
should automatically be compiled and TeeChart 6.01 should work correctly.
Then if you have trouble with some of the .dcu files, you can simply re… -
Hi Joe,
Unfortunately Steema released their version of TeeChart 6.01 only a few
weeks after our release of RB 7.03 so the latest version of RB was built
with TeeChart 6.0 in mind. To solve this problem, you can simply changeHi Chris,
You're right... the previewer is nothing more than a TppViewer with some
advanced controls added to it. The current entire previewer is created in
code inside the TppPreview class. (ppPreview.pas). Take a look at th…Hi Chris,
Take a look at the TppPrintPreview class inside the ppPrvDlg.pas for an
example of embedding the TppPreview inside a form. This is how the preview
can be viewed by itself and in conjunction with the designer on a tab …Hi Jes,
I am unsure why you are getting this behavior. Instead of using a DBCalc
component and the SuppressRepeatedValues feature, you may need to use two
TppVariables and in the OnCalc of the one in the detail band, determine …Hi Pat,

Hi Jim,
Which database/connectivity are you using? Do you get this behavior when
running any of the End-User demo apps? If you stop using the
DataDictionary, does the problem go away? When accessing a dataset,

Sorry about that. Try re-downloading the example. I tested it with Delphi
7 and RB 7.03.

You could use the group footer to tell when the child groups are breaking.
Perhaps if you place a TppVariable in your report and increment it every
time the ppGroupFooterBand.BeforePrint event fires, then reseting it each…Hi Zoran,
Thanks for pointing this out. I am unsure when and for whom the Booklet
example was created but I think it was some time close to April of 2001. It
seemed that there were two bugs in the example rather than one.
Hi Phil,
Printing the report to PDF will still use the printer driver to calculate
the measurements of the components, bands, fonts, etc. As a test try
printing to a completely different printer and see if that changes the

You need to be sure you have daDBExpress in your uses clause for dbExpress

It is possible to create and register your own custom Report Explorer Dialog

Guide example on creating custom dialogs. You could basically…Hi Tony,
Thanks for evaluating ReportBuilder. Try using the TppReport.MoveGroup

this method.

Try changing the SQL Type in the Data Settings dialog to SQL2 rather than
SQL1. This should solve the issue.

Hi Heiko,
As ReportBuilder generates a page it moves sequentially through each record
for each detail band so you can use the DetailBand.BeforePrint event to
update the current record of the dataset you are using. Something lik…Sorry... I must be tired

1. Unfortunately you cannot simply "pre-load" SQL text into the designer

You will need to change the display format of the label to get this effect.
You can either do this manually or by changing the TppDisplayFormat class
