  • Hi Harry,

    Is the object showing up in the Delphi Object TreeView? If so, you should
    be able to click on it in there and delete it as you need.

  • Hi,

    Refreshing the report at runtime from the preview is very similar to using
    the AutoSearch feature. Once your data has been changed in your database,
    be sure your datasets are active, then reset the Report and the
    Repor…
  • This question has been answered in a prior post....

  • Hi Kumar,

    Try setting the Height of the images to 2 and set the
    ppImage.MaintainAspectRatio to True. This will keep the size proportional
    to the original.

  • Hi Rick,

    You will need to create a custom query designer with the KeyDown event
    implemented. Then you can take a look at how the query designer works
    (perhaps in the AvailableDblClickEvent) to see what happens when a field is
  • Hi Kumar,

    If you are trying to suppres the printing of a band or object at runtime,
    you can check a certian condition in the OnBeforePrint event of that object,
    then set its Visible property to False if the condition is not met.…
  • Hi Kumar,

    Archives act a little different than normal reports in the way they are sent
    to the printer. If you need to change the printer setup for an archive, you
    need to make the changes inside the ArchiveReader.OnInitializePr…
  • Hi Kumar,

    One of our customers developed an Archive Merge Utility that allows you to
    merge multiple Report Archives into one. This may help you if you decide to
    print the reports using Archive files. If you would like to take …
  • Hi Kumar,

    Sorry for the missunderstanding. Take a look at Demo 153 (spawned drilldown
    reports). Using this method with the section style subreports method I
    described earlier may be your best option for what you need.
  • Hi Kumar,

    There are two ways to do this.

    1. Combine the two reports into one report using Section Style subreports.
    Section Style subreports were designed specifically to handle the printing
    of multiple reports as on…
  • Hi Ian,

    The Proxies unit has not been included in Delphi since Delphi 5. It is now
    included in the DesignIntf package. If you add this package to your
    requires, you will have added the Proxies unit successfully.

  • Hi Martin,

    Thanks for the heads up. I will look into this.

  • Hi Tony,

    WPTools and InfoPower are the two leading RichText enhancers for
    ReportBuilder. WPTools created their own plugin for ReportBuilder so you
    will need to contact them for more information on how it works. Perhaps
    so…
  • Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for the feedback. I will mark this down as a possible enhancement
    for the next release.

  • Hi Andrew,

    Unfortunately if you would like to create a group at design time for a field
    in your dataset, the dataset will need to be connected to the current
    database and active. Otherwise there is no way for ReportBuilder to k…
  • Hi Jay,

    This means you do not have the language dlls installed with ReportBuilder.
    You will either need to reinstall ReportBuilder with the correct
    international languages selected, or by using the language resource to dll
  • Hi Jay,

    If you installed Spanish language support when you installed ReportBuilder,
    you should be able to simply change the Report.Language to lgSpanish and
    these changes will automatically occur. If this is not what you need, …
  • Sorry, my mistake... There is no PrinterSettings object. Try
    Report.PrinterSetup.DelegateCopies... that should compile a little better
  • Hi Louis,

    We have not had any issues like this one with RB 7.03. As a test, try
    commenting out all your event handler code and see if that helps. If so,
    some of that code may be confusing the report engine. Another thing you …
  • Hi Matt,

    The CrossTab, by definition will sort in ascending order on the key field of
    your dataset. The only way to reorder the crosstab is to trick it by
    creating a new master field with individual numbers as records. Then up…
  • Hi Rob,

    By default, a Report object will find every instance of a DataPipeline on
    your form (or in DADE) and allow you to access the data from it. Since the
    query you describe below probably only returns one record there is no …
  • Hi SeHun,

    The use of SubReports in your situations could be helpful. You will however
    need to create two separate datasets to handle the Orders Notes and User QA
    separately (if I'm understanding correctly). You could perhaps c…
  • Hi Eduardo,

    raCodMod.dcu contains the TraCodeModule class which is required to enable
    the Calc tab in the end-user designer. RAP is only available with
    ReportBuilder Enterprise Edition and the source (.pas files) are not
    p…
  • Yelena,

    Sorry, this is not currently possible using the ReportBuilder Barcode
    component. I will mark this down as a possible enhancement for a future
    release.

  • Hi Harry,

    From the BeforePrint Event in RAP, you can access the
    SubReport.Report.Bands[] property to reference a band in a given subreport.
    You could also create a global variable that references a certain band
    inside a sub…
  • Hi Harry,

    Actually the Report.BeforePrint will only fire once per print. The band
    events all have the possibility of firing multiple times per record. If the
    Report.BeforePrint works, I would say stick with it. To be sure the…
  • They look nice...

    I'm on the Dynastar Twister (twin tip mogul ski) and will be getting the
    Rossi Scratch FS soon.

  • Hi Harry,

    I went ahead and created you an example that creates a TppTeeChart in code
    and places it on an empty report. I hope this helps.

    in Dynamic TeeCharts Comment by nicocizik April 2004
  • Hi Harry,

    I would first suggest getting this working in Delphi before moving it to a
    RAP passthru function. Do you get the same behavior when creating a
    TeeChart in Delphi? If you are seeing the chart object, then you have
  • Hi Elizabeth,

    This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder.

    1. First try commenting out all your event handlers and re-running your
    report. If this helps, periodically begin adding the code back to isolate
    the probl…
