Hi Tony,
Unfortunately if you want keep building your queries visually in DADE, you
will have to change your data so the calculations are already made before
DADE is used. There are a couple other options as well such as insert… -
Hi John,
I'm sorry, I was unaware you were using RAP. Since RAP does not support
Delphi Sets, we decided to make each Font.Style into a boolean property to
enable a user to access them. You're RAP code should look something li… -
Hi John,

Hi jure,
Try calling ppReport.PreviewForm.Close to close the previewer in the middle

Hi Bruno,
If the number resides on a database, try using a dbBarcode component and

Hi Yelena,
This should work the same way that the TppVariables work. In my testing, I
was able to get the background and text to show up in the assigned colors

Hi Richard,
Be sure that you installed the correct version of ReportBuilder 7. There

Hi Pete,
Check your datapipeline components and be sure that the SkipWhenNoRecords is

subreports and only Variables rather than Variables and DBCalcs.
in Calculating the grand total from subtotals in a subreport Comment by nicocizik September 2003Hi Douglas,
Be sure that you have the second subreport set to "ShiftRelativeTo" the
first one. The easiest way to set this is to right click the second
subreport object in the main report and select the ShiftRelativeTo pop-upHi Douglas,
The Report Outline was added in RB 7. Though we always recommend that you
upgrade to the latest version of ReportBuilder, you should still be able to

Here is a simple example loading two report templates into ChildStyle
subreports. Remember that ChildStyle subreports do not support a Header or
Footer band so you will either need to use the Title and Summary or create aTo do this you need to create a new report which has SectionStyle (Set the
PrintBehavior property) subreports in it. Then load each one of your reports
into one of the subreports. Section style subreports always print on a new
page. …Hi Sandro,

Hi David,
The two third party utilities used to convert ReportBuilder reports to PDF
(Waler, and Pragnaan) allow a user to choose if they want their RichText to
be displayed in the PDF file as a bitmap or as plain text. The bit…Hi David,
The DBMemo component should word wrap automatically by default with the
CharWrap set to false. I am unclear how this word wrapping is insufficient
for your needs. Try setting the DBMemo.Stretch property to True to be…Hi Nols,
You will need to use the DetailBand.BeforePrint event to successfully
suppress any other object while suppressing a DBText value. There is also a
bit more to it than that. Here is a good example of suppressing otherHi Alex,
Instead of feeding the report data like you are doing right now, try
connecting the data (Customer Address) to a JITPipeline and have that handle
the sending data to the report. The problem you are experiencing is
Hi Arthur,
Try disconnecting any event handlers you have working with your report at

Check out the Report.OnOutlineNodeCreate event. This event will give you
access to the TTreeView nodes used to generate the Report Outline. Set the

ReportBuilder uses the same API calls to access any printer driver. If your
report is printing correctly on one printer and not on another, the problem
is most likely related to the printer driver. You might try conta…Hi Alex,
Make sure you have the latest printer drivers for both printers. How are
the printers printing differently? Is this a difference in margins or are
report components being placed in different positions?

Hi Charles,
You have two options in this case. You can either create a group around a
