Hi Colton,
I would first recommend that you consider upgrading to the latest version of
ReportBuilder for your version of Delphi.
If you trace into the code below, where is the error occuring. My guess
would be tha… -
Hi George,
Since the DBPipeline connects to a SQL dataset, it does not need to know the
record count ahead of time like the JITPipeline does. It will simply
traverse the number of records given by the database. You will need… -
Hi George,
Yes you are correct. The data workspace (DADE) is designed to work with SQL
queries accessed directly from a database. The nature of the JITPipeline
and its required customization prevents it from being used in DA… -
Hi George,
Sorry, but I'm a bit unclear what you are trying to accomplish. The
JITPipeline and DBPipeline are both descendents of the same class so you
should be able to determine the current record for each the same way in <… -
Hi Jason,
This is not a known issue with RB 10. Are you able to see the difference on
screen when the default printer is set to each printer respectivly? If so,
let me know the exact printers you are using and the steps I ca… -
Hi Jason,
ReportBuilder does not communicate with the printer directly. It uses
generic Windows API commands which in turn communicate with the printer
driver. It is up to the printer driver to properly execute these API
Hi Gustavo,
There are two options in your case.
1. Create a custom RichText editor for ReportBuilder and replace the
existing one. This custom editor would contain all the current
functionality and the added featu…Hi Dipak,
Digital Metaphors does not offer a conversion tool for ReportBuilder so I
cannot comment on the quality of the converted report you are using.

After some further research we found that over the years, the printer
drivers have been getting more advanced and capable of handling shades of
grey with black and white only printers. The code you mention below has…Hi Filip,
Thanks, I will install the printer driver and make a few tests. Note that
the GetDeviceCaps routine accesses the Windows API directly. If this
printer is capable of printing in more than two colors, the FCanGraySca…Hi Filip,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? When you have this printer
set to the default, are you able to see this behavior on screen? Let me
know the exact model you are printing to so I can download the driver…Hi Filip,
ReportBuilder asks the Windows API for the number of colors a printer is
capable of printing. If this number is 2, then it is assumed that it is a
black and white only printer and all colors other than white are tur…Hi Ralf,
If you are loading templates, the events you assign to the report object
will no longer be valid. One option is to use RAP to keep all event code
local to the template.
------------------------------------…Hi Ralf,
This is very similar to how the main reports demo works. You should be able
to implement the report events on the form that the report is located. I
did a quick test and was able to see the ShowMessage in the AfterP…Hi Dipak,
Does this error occur only at design time or are you able to recreate it at
run time? You might try reinstalling your version and seeing if that helps.
I would recommend downloading a trial edition of the latest ver…Hi Mike,
Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you using? What type of subreport
are you using? Be sure the ParentPrinterSetup property of the subreport is
set to True or that the PrinterSetup.MarginTop property of the s…Hi Araf,
This is not a known issue. Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you
using? From my quick research I believe the .dll file the error is
referring to is the driver for the HP printer you are using. You might try…Hi Dipak,
A report template saved to database is identical to a template saved to
file. Both tempaltes will be loaded by the template object and processed at
runtime in the same way. The speed in which report templates can b…Hi Andy,
Take a look at the Enterprise edition of ReportBuilder. This includes RAP
which stands for Report Application Programming and allows you to embed and
execute pascal code from within the report template. I would sugg…Hi Alan,
Sorry about that. The comments were incorrect for some versions of
ReportBuilder. This has been fixed for the latest version. It should

P…Hi Alan,
Instead of createing this label template manually, I would recommend adding
this as a custom label template to the label wizard built-in to
ReportBuilder. This is designed to handle the type of label you are usingHi,
Take a look at the following example. This report contains two section
style subreports, then through some processing, rearranges the pages as they
print manually. It is not exactly what you need however it should get yo…Hi Paul,
From what I can tell, this is more or less a Master-Detail style report done
manually. Though we have never tried anything like this before, it should
be possible.

Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you currently using? Which
database are you connecting to? Are you using DADE to create your queries?
If you are not using DADE, be sure you define the table before the fiel…Hi Brenton,
I did a quick check and it looks like we enhanced the TppPrinter class to
better support the DEVMODE structure values for RB 10. Try downloading a
trial edition of RB 10.04 and test with that.

…Hi Brenton,
Where exactly are you setting the printer to print black and white? If you
are doing so from the Properties dialog of the printer accessed from the
Print Dialog, this is using the Windows API to make the setting f…Hi Ennio,
Also be sure you have the SkipWhenNoRecords property of the Detail Pipeline
set to False.

in how to print report if subreport is empty Comment by nicocizik December 2006Hi Ennio,
Be sure the NoDataBehaviors property of your report and subreport is set to
ndBlankReport rather than ndBlankPage. This will allow non-data aware
components to show up even if there is no data available.

ReportBuilder 10 is the only available version that works with Turbo Delphi
2006.
