Hi William,
I tried what you described below and was unable to see the shift. Below is
a copy of the template I was using to test. What type of printer are you
using? If you can help me recreate this behavior, I can be sure t… -
Hi Nenad,
This is a limitation of the RotatedText component.
I'm unclear about what is happening here. How is the position changing.
The Top and Left values should remain constant for the text control, evenHi Ping,
Try placing the image inside a TppRegion component with the ShiftRelativeTo
set to the TppRichEdit. You can turn the border of the region off using the
Pen.Style property.

Hi Gianantinio,
Check out the following example. It shows how to load a template into a
subreport located in the header of the main report for use with multiple
reports.
in Subreports Comment by nicocizik September 2004Hi Paul,
Yes this can be done. Depending on which type of databases you are using,
you can connect datapipelines to any TDataSet descendent containing data
from almost any database. If you would like to traverse the data of ea…Hi Robert,
ReportBuilder 7.04 provides full built-in support for TeeChart 7. Note that
TeeChart 7 was never tested with RB 7.02 so I cannot guarentee that it will
work correctly. I would recommend upgrading to RB 7.04 (free up…Hi Ping,
At Digital Metaphors, we take all customer feedback and suggestions
seriously. Usually if we find there has been enough interest in a certain

Unfortunately, you cannot currently format the fields displayed in a Mail
Merge RichText in ReportBuilder. It is on our to-do list for the next
release to enhance this feature of ReportBuilder.

Hi Dominic,
You could achieve this using TeeChart 4.04, but you as you said, you would
not be able to design this report at Delphi design time as it does not allow
you to assign a datapipeline. If you are looking to upgrade, I …Hi Kei,
This is a limitation of ReportBuilder. If you would like to get the effect
of nested groups with keeptogether on, you will need ot use multiple
datasets with one single group and subreports with their keeptogether set t…Hi Tom,
Check to be sure you do not have the Reprint Group Header On Subsequent
Pages option checked in the group dialog. Are you trying to keep each one
of these groups together individually? You may be able to increase the N…Hi Ron,
Some printers have trouble printing certain brush and line patterns. This
maybe a limitation of the printers or how they react based on the settings
you give them. As a test try printing a shape with the same brush st…Hi Graeme,
If you are loading templates, the safest way to ensure that you are
connecting to the correct datapipelines is to do in manually after the
template is loaded. The report templates are designed to work in

This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. Check your datapipeline
properties to be sure AutoCreateFields is set to True. Also, double click
on the DBPipeline object and be sure all the fields are present. Ins…Hi Ronny,
I assume that you are also using DADE as this is where the reserved words
are handled. I created a patch that adds TYPE to the reserved word list.

If you install TeeChart after you install ReportBuilder, you will need to
either re-compile the RB/TeeChart packages or simply uninstall ReportBuilder
and reinstall it. If you would like to take the re-compile rou…Hi Andreas,

Upgrading to TeeChart 7 will fix the issue in some cases. I'm certain that
if you contacted Steema support, they would have recommended the same.

Unfortunately there are no workarounds that we know of as this is a TeeChart
bug. Have you tried using TeeChart Pro 7.0?

in TeeChart Memory Problem Comment by nicocizik September 2004Hi Todd,
This has been an issue with ReportBuilder and TeeChart for many years now.
It has to do with the free notification of the TeeChart component when the
owner is not the form. We have submitted detailed examples to Stee…Hi Bill,
Sorry, I completely misunderstood your first post (Monday morning I guess
). Check out the following example. It shows how to skip the first X
labels before printing so you can start exactly where you left off the l…Hi Bill,
Would you like to simply break the page after the final label, or would you
like to print N number of blank labels until the page breaks? I would
recommend causing a page break after the last label prints. You can d…Hi Richard,
Ok, let's start by simplifying your report a little. First remove the
second group from the report so you are only grouping on contract_no. Then
be sure your dataset is in fact ordered by contract_no. Also be su…Hi Rich,
When you say that you try and "group the report" by a single field, are you
creating a group inside the actual report or are you using the GROUP BY
clause? Remember that by definition all the items in the Select list…Hi,
Where are you making these changes? If you would like the changes to
reflect on each page in the report, be sure you use an event that fires
sufficient enough to make them.

Below is a link to an example that shows how to launch the label template
wizard in code separate from ReportBuilder. This may help with both of the
issues you have encountered.
