Hi Filip,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? If you have RB 9 or later,
you could manually toggle the visibility of a TppPageBreak component inside
the band based on whether you want the page to break or not.

Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for the info. I took a look at the HP-PSC 500 manual on line and it
looks like this is a all-in-one printer, scanner, copier. Looking at the
print opitons for the driver, I could not see anything that coul… -
Hi Ricardo,
What type of printer is your client using? The only thing I can think of is
that perhaps it has some sort of page scaling option in the driver software.
If you let me know the name of the printer, I will download … -
Hi Danielle,
Unfortunately rotating the captions inside a crosstab is not currently a
feature of this component. The built-in cross tab is somewhat limited in
the ways it can be customized. Thanks for the feedback. I am not… -
Hi Mark,
This is not a known issue. Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you

Hi Bill,
1. You could create a two pass report and before the second pass begins,
check the Report.AbsolutePageCount property to determine the total amount of
pages. Then you could use the Report.BeforePrint event to warn th… -
Hi Rogerio,
Unfortunately this is not an option for the TppCrossTab component. The row
height is determined by the font size of the text present in that row. You

Hi Rogerio,
ReportBuilder will not break to the next page unless it runs out of space to
print on the first page. Are you using all static components and bands?
Are your subreports fixed style? If not, they will stretch and … -

Hi Brandie,
It is possible to change the BreakName of a group at runtime before the
report prints. Something like the following...

Saving the report to an archive file will do just that. Then you can use
the ArchiveReader to view the report inside the normal preview window. Take
a look at demo 151 (dm0151.pas) located in the \RBuilder\Dem…Hi Bill,
If you would like to save a snapshot of a report, you can export it to an
Archive file, essentially saving the data printed inside the report
definition. If you are looking to save all data access information inside …Hi Michael,
I have not tried it myself, but Ed mentioned a method that he's used before
in a previous post. Note that you are going to want to avoid using the page
footer band as this will always print at the bottom of …Hi Michael,
The ReportBuilder previewer sets its scrollbar size based on the size of a
page. If you were to fit your entire report on a single page, there would
be no need to create a custom previewer. However you mention th…Hi Tan,

You need to be sure you are making all calculations inside the OnCalc event
