Hi Vincent,
Since you are loading this template from file before showing the report
explorer, you will need to use the Save As option to save the report as a
new file. Save, by default will save the report to the template file<… -
Hi Pavel,
There is a built-in report component called the TppSystemVariable that is
available on the Standard Toolbar of the Report Designer. This component
will calculate the page set description as you describe below for you<… -
Hi,
Try using the TppGroup.NewPage and TppGroup.ResetPageNo properties. Setting
both of these boolean properties to True will force your groups to start on
a new page and reset the report page number. This can be done in code … -

Hi Eric,
You need to be sure the ReportBuilder IBExpress design package is installed
in your IDE. Select the Component | Install Packages | ... menu option in
the Delphi IDE. Then scroll down and be sure the "ReportBuilder Dat… -
Hi Alex,
You may need to open the packages you are using and check the path of some
of the other required packages. If they are looking for rbide55 in the
wrong directory, you may get this error.

Hi Alex,
Yes, I would recommend performing a complete corrupt install cleanup before
trying to re-install ReportBuilder. See the article below for more
information.

Hi James,
I'm a little unclear about what you mean by the Delphi Color component. Is
this a property somewhere that is sets the color depth? I believe Delphi is
forced to change all your images to the current windows color dep… -
Hi James,
We have never seen (or noticed) this behavior before. Which version of
ReportBuilder / Delphi are you using. Which model printer are you using?
We are constantly trying to improve our image rendering code so once I g… -
Hi,
Sorry, I only did a simple test before makeing the suggestion. The only
other option I see is to create a region for each item that needs to be
shifted as you mentioned in your first post.

Hi,
Instead of using three regions, try placing your dbtext objects inside one
region with Stretch set to True. Then be sure the lower dbtexts have their
ShiftWithParent properties set to True. This should shift the fields up<… -
ReportBuilder simply traverses the dataset you provide top to bottom. You
will need to sort your dataset in SQL code using the Order By command to get
a dbText to show up this way. The one exception is using the CrossTab
component, … -
Hi Peter,
This is not a known issue, however there were many printer fixes between the
current release and RB 6.03. Please download a trial version of RB 7.03
from our web site and test with that. If you still experience the p… -

Hello,
There is no need to call this method. Once you have created your group in
code, you will need to assign the TppGroup.Report property to the current
report. Once you do this, the group will be added to the defined report… -
Hi Frank,
You can change the print order of items in a report by using the "Send to
Back" and "Bring to Front" commands available by right clicking on any
object and using the popup menu. If you open the Report Tree (by selecti… -
Hi Martin,
Below is a link to an example of loading a report using a progress bar.
This should get you on the right track. Hope it helps.

Hi Tim,
This behavior is probably due to a memory or resource leak in the drivers
you are using with the DeskJet printers. ReportBuilder sends the same
Windows API commands to every printer it prints to regardless the type.
Hi Jon,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that when creating
grouped queries, all non aggregate fields are required to be in the GROUP BY
and you are also unable to group by a blob field. This would preven…Hi Eric,
Thanks for the suggestion. This will be addressed in the next release. For
now, check out the following custom Query Wizard dialog I created that makes
the list boxes in the query wizard have a scrollable width. Simp…Hi Robert,
Sorry, I did not realize you were developing a much more complicated report.
The use of JITPipelines as you said below would definitely be your best bet
to get exactly what you want out of this report. Good luck and …Hi Robert,
Each report/subreport in ReportBuilder is designed to traverse the data of
one dataset. Try placing a Child style SubReport in the detail band for
each dataset you have. Then connect each subreport to each separate<…Hi Gary,
The TppZoomSettingType declaration has been moved to the ppTypes unit. You
will need to add ppTypes to your uses clause.

Hi Dave,
This could be solved very easily using RAP. With RAP you could keep all
your event handler code local to each individual report rather than having
it execute for each report you run on the form. With the use of RAP an…Hi Joe,
Unfortuntately I do not believe there is an easy way to accomplish. The
AutoSearch feature calls the TppViewer.RegenerateReport method to run the
report over again and refresh the data... you may be able to use this met…Sorry, forgot the article...

The Report.BeforePrint should fire when printing to the printer. Are you
loading these reports as templates? If so you may be loosing your event
handlers. See the article below on lost event handlers. Also, you ma…Hi Vikram,
This is correct. All the text components in ReportBuilder descend from
TppPrintable which contains a Font property that is set by the user. This
also defines the font of the Text DrawCommands.

Vikram,
There have been no changes to the font logic from RB 7 to RB 7.03. My
suggestion is to comment out all your event handler code and see if that
fixes the issue. If so, periodically begin adding your code back to isolate…Hi Walter,
Do you experience this behavior on more than one printer? If possible,
please send an example of this behavior in .zip format to
support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll take a look at it for you.
