Hi Stijn,
I believe this was a bug for ReportBuilder 6. Please try downloading a
trial version of ReportBuilder 9 and test with that. Be sure to back up all
your templates before loading them in RB 9.

The current TRotatedText component was not designed to work with RB 9. RB 9
contains a completely new design controls archetecture that is much more
elegantly designed and easier to understand. Try replacing ppD…Hi Heinz,
If you have the proper .dll files installed, you can change the language RB
uses at runtime using the TppReport.Language property. See the
ReportBuilder help for this topic for more information. I also posted anHi Steve,
I'm a bit unclear about what you would like to happen. If a certain DBText
component is blank, would you like your entire report blank except for the
date? If so, you could simply set the detailband's visible prope…Hi Filip,

There are probably many ways to go about this. I would recommend placing a
TppVariable in your detail band and in the DetailBand.BeforePrint event,
check the field value and adjust the value of the TppVariable acco…Hi Dietmar,
The ShiftRelativeTo property will not maintain the distance between objects
vertically. To ensure there is a given distance between object on a report,
you will need to use teh BottomOffset property.

You should be able to accomplish this by placing one region on top of
another and toggling the visibility of each according to the condition.
This is possible by using the TppRegion.ShiftRelativeTo…Ivan,

In order for a barcode to read correctly, it needs to be sized proportional
to the number of characters you have. You can try adjusting the
WideBarRatio property and see if that still works for the barcodes you ar…Hi Georg,
This is not a known issue with using RB and a terminal machine. You can
gain access to the preview form by using the TppReport.PreviewForm property.
Perhaps using this property, you can change the focus of that wind…Hi Brandon,
Have you tried printing to a different printer? This is not a known issue
with ReportBuilder nor are we able to recreate it on any of our printers
here. If you would like you can send an example of this behavior …Hi Branden,
Some printers have issues printing certain shades of gray. Try printing to
a different printer and see if you get the same results. Also be sure you

Thanks for pointing this out. I was able to recreate the issue at design
time in Delphi 2005. However at runtime, the issue does not seem to appear.

You will need to use the StartJob and EndJob events of the TppDevice in
order to print each page individually. See Demo 123 for an example of using
these events.

in Skip same values Comment by nicocizik December 2004Hi Christian,
If you have AutoCreateFields set to True, you should only need to close,
then open the DBPipeline in order for it to refresh its field list. In my
testing, this worked fine except the DataTree, which you need to…Hi Christian,
When are you changing the data in your query? If you are doing this during
report generation, there is no way to refresh the datapipeline, because it
is being traversed at that time. Perhaps a little more infor…Thanks, that's a good tip Jon,
Yes, if you initialize the printer object before you actually print any
reports, the information will be cached and there should be no delay when
you do decide to print.

I was able to recreate this issue and it seems that the
GetDeviceCapabilities API call hangs a little when making requests from the
printer driver when that printer's computer is shut off. However once
