  • Hi Klaus,

    You can access the column options directly from the designer by selecting
    the File | Page Setup menu option, then clicking over to the Layout tab.

  • Hi Klaus,

    You are given one ColumnHeaderBand and one ColumnFooterBand when creating
    columns. If you need another band for a column, you will need to create a
    group and use the group header or footer.

  • Hi Astner,

    You can do this by creating your report with columns and setting your
    Report.DetailBand.ColumnTraversal := ctLeftToRight. This is a published
    property so it can be set in the Object Inspector. This will cause each

    Be sure that your library path is pointing to the correct version of
    TeeChart in your Delphi root directory. Also be sure you do not have any
    other TeeChart Versions installed or loaded in Delphi.

  • Hi Jef,

    I am having a bit of a hard time understanding what is happening. Would it
    be possible for you to create a small Delphi example demonstrating the
    problem along with a description of how you would like your report to loo…

  • Hi Weverton,

    Are you able to print your richtext to a Delphi TRichEd and get a correct
    display? The TppRichText component relies on the TRichEd component to read
    RTF data. Below are a couple articles that may help.

  • Hi Kalle,

    I am a bit unclear about what you are after. If you would like to print a
    verticle label, check out the freeware add-on product RotatedText available
    for download from our website in the friends | rcl section.
  • The easiest way would be to use DADE and create a calculated field in a
    dataview. Otherwise you would need to use a JITPipeline conected to a
    string list with the calculated fields already in it. Try creating a
    calculated field in D…
  • Hi,

    When grouping on a TppVarible you will need to make your calculations in the
    OnGetText event so the group will be able to know when the variable's value
    has changed. This however could cause problems as the OnGetText event …

  • Hi Peter,

    The visibility of the DetailBand was included to temporarily toggle this
    property. ReportBuilder will not finish generating the rest of the bands
    until the DetailBand has finished. Your report should have no problems…
  • Hi Marcelo,

    It is possible to join two datapipelines in code when you have edited the
    sql in DADE. Follow the link below for an example of how this is done.

  • Hi Carlos,

    The reason you are receiving an AV error is that you are trying to display
    the print dialog before it has been created. You will need to create a new
    print dialog and access its properties after that. Once you creat…
  • Hi Carlos,

    There is no built in way to change the default printer in Delphi. Depending
    on which Operating System you are using, you may have to chang the Win.ini
    file along with the registry. Starting with Windows NT, all defa…
  • Hi Carlos,

    Yes, this is probably related to the margins you have set for your report.
    When ReportBuilder generates a report, it uses the printer driver to
    determine how much space it has to print a page. If the margins of the

  • Hi John,

    The crosstab contains its own traversal engine. You will not be able to
    simply add values into individual cells during the regular report traversal.
    Your best solution would be to create a new calculated field in your …
  • Hi John,

    When you set the text value in the GetValueText event, the crosstab
    component has already traversed the data in your dataset so you will only be
    retreiving the last record. You will either need to re-order the dataset …

    If you would like a completely thread safe application, you will need to
