Hi Jason,
Setting the visibility of the group header and footer will not remove the
group from the report. You will need to access the TppReport.Groups
property to access the list of groups in your report. Then once you have… -

Tech Tip: Loop Thru All Objects in a Report

A ReportBuilder report is composed of a set

Hi Rudi,
I am unaware of any current addons for ReportBuilder that support PDF417
barcodes but perhaps another customer will chime in with their experiences.
If you do decide to take the image route, I would suggest primarily …Hi Matt,
When making any type of calculation in ReportBuilder, it is necessary to use
the OnCalc event of a TppVariable. This is to ensure that the event only
fires once per calculation interval. The code you have below is t…Hi Matthew,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? Instead of calculating on
DatapipelineTraversal, try using Traversal instead. If this does not affect
the output, please send a small example of this behavior in .zip…Hi Jeff,
Although the Band.AfterGenerate may fire more than once per traversal, it is
possible to add a conditional statement to this event to prevent certain
code from executing when the event is fired for the second time. Y…Hi Jeff,
A file device (export filter) does not interact with the report engine at
all as it produces the report. The file device receives a report one page
at a time, each page consisting of the page settings and an array of…Hi Eungi,
Try placing a stop inside the AfterPrint event and be sure this event is not
firing more than once. I am a bit unclear about what you are trying to
accomplish by trying to export your report in the AfterPrint event.…Hi Andreas,
There were a few fixes made to the image handling routines in ReportBuilder
7.04. You may want to try upgrading to the latest version and see if that
helps as well. This would be a free maintenance upgrade for yo…Hi Nuno,
The most elegant solution to this problem is to keep all the event handlers
local to the template file you are loading using RAP. RAP is available with
the Enterprise Edition of ReportBuilder. See the article below …Hi,
In my testing with RB 7.04, the Page Up and Page Down keys worked correctly
inside the preview (as well as the up arrow and down arrow keys). Try
upgrading to the latest version and see if that fixes the problem.Alan,
I'm sorry, are you using the Learning ReportBuilder application? I believe
the datasettings are supposed to already be set for you when you run this

Before you select File | New, you need to define your Data Settings (File |

Take a look at the DBISAM end user example located in the \RBuilder\Demos\4.

idea of what is possible storing Templates on a database.
Hi Jon,
Really the only way around the fact that the GroupBeforePrint event fires
more than once is to either keep track of which group you are currently in
when the event fires or to use the OnCalc event to another TppVariabl…Hi Ivan,
There is no "Border" property in the current release of ReportBuilder. The
best way to show a border around a component in RB is to place a rectangle
(TppShape) behind the text component and size it to match the size…Hi Reid,
Thanks for the feedback. The DocumentName property probably could be
handled a little better in the designer. I found that if you change the
TppSystemVariable's VarType to something else (such as Date), then back to…Hi Yossi,
I'm unclear about what you mean by this. How is the page output incorrect.
Are you missing items? Are the report objects in the wrong positions? Be
sure your margins fall within the printable area of the pri…Hi Peter,
If you are altering the positions/output of a report object inside the
detail band, you will want to set these properties inside the
DetailBand.BeforePrint. This will ensure that your changes are in fact
made.…Hi Peter,
In the Band.BeforePrint, you can move any previously created object around
by simply setting their Left and Top properties. If you need to create
these objects dynamically, you may need to use an event that fires ea…Hi Peter,
Yes this is correct. Unfortunately the package was not updated for the
latest version of DBISAM. I apologize for this and will have it fixed for
the next release.
See the help for the TppTemplate.D…Hi Petter,
If you do not use the DataDictionary (i.e. Designer.DataSettings: remove the
DataDictionary reference) does the end user demo still work? If not, it may
be having trouble connecting to the DBISAM data. Check to be…Hi John,
Some printers have trouble printing certain brush and line patterns. As a
test try printing a shape with the same brush style from a Delphi form
without ReportBuilder. If the problem still occurs, you may need to ei…Hi James,
Much to my surprise, this is not mentioned in our help. Thank you for
bringing this to our attention. I updated our help to mention this

Page Headers and Page Footers are not available in a Child Subreport. If
you need a page header in your subreport, you will either need to use a
Group Header or enable the Title Band.

This appears to be a limitation of the AutoSearch feature. ReportBuilder
searches through your entered criteria for commas representing the
separation of two Between values. You may be able to use the

Are you using DADE? DADE dataviews don't natively support stored procs.
