Hi Massimo,
You might try the dot matrix export tool that comes with Waler's
TExtraDevices. This could potentially help with the problem you are having.

Hi Israel,
Try loading the datasets before calling Report.Print. This way you will be
able to give your users a dialog box or something to let them know what is
happening. Then when you print your report, ReportBuilder will be…Hi Felix,
1. Be sure you have the latest Printer driver for the printer you are
using.
2. On many printers, Transparent images are not supported. Be sure the
Transparent property is set to false on your TppImages.<…Hi Rene,
For WPTools to work with ReportBuilder you need to use the WPCubed created
plugin. I believe this comes with the installation of WPTools. This is the
only way the ReportBuilder RichText component will recognize the WP…Hi Sanya,
I'm sorry, but in my attempts I am unable to get this effect. This may be a
limitation of ReportBuilder.

Hi Bob,
You will need to set the Template.DatabaseSettings.Name before you call
Template.SaveToDatabase. To make things easier on yourself, you should name
the files the same as their corresponding report names on database. Th…Hi Bob,
In my testing on my Pentium 3, 600 w/ 512 ram, I was able to select over 20
components at run-time and move them with the Ctrl key with no more than a
second delay. It is true however that the more report components you…Hi Rodolfo,
I tested this on my machine and though performance did slow down after
selecting 20+ items, it was not un-usable. When selecting multiple
components in a report you can change their properties at the same time inHi Sorin,
Try using the Page Style to place static lines on every page. The page
style will essentially print in the background of each page of the report.
You can access the Page Style by selecting it from the Report menu in t…Hi Paul,
ReportBuilder uses a wrapper around the actual TeeChart component. For help
with formatting a TeeChart, you might try asking the TeeMach support.

Check out the example I sent in your later post. It shows you how to
extract the sql object from a dataview in DADE.

Hi Bob,
Check out the example in the \RBuilder\Demos\5. AutoSearch\4. Custom
AutoSearch Dialog . This example uses the OnGetAutoSearchValues event to
add SQL to your criteria. This example adds an "AND" rather than an "OR"
Hi Bob,
You should be able to use an OR statement with your autosearch criteria.
This however will show up as an "and" in the Autosearch dialog that pops up
before the report loads. This is a limitation of the Autosearch dialog…Hi Nicola,
You can use a Two-Pass report to accomplish this. Check out the example
below for an example of creating an index of the report contents at the end
of a report.
in [Newbie] How to generate an index Comment by nicocizik October 2003Hi Clive,
I would recommend using the solution you already have of creating the new
printer connection before you call Report.Print. I believe the
Report.PrinterSetup is saving down the current list of printers so when you
Hi Clive,
There is a way to refresh the printer list without having to call any API
functions directly. Be sure you include ppPrintr in your 'uses' clause,
then call:
ppPrinters.Refresh;
This will change t…Hi Bob,
As far as Save and SaveAs go, the designer treats them almost the same way.
It checks to see if the file already exists and then saves the report to the
specified location. You should not have to worry about the differe…Hi Bob,
Try using the OnCustomSaveDoc event in the TppDesigner. The Sender object
in this event is the report with all the save options set up. All you will
need to do is worry about where you would like your report to be save…Hi Stijn,
Yes, this should be possible, though we have had customers who had trouble
combining numerous reports with extensive calculations and processing. You
may also want to consider generating, then exporting your reports t…Hi Stijn,
You can add many reports to a single report by using subreports. You're
best bet would be to use section style subreports with your original reports
loaded into each one. Your original reports can be loaded manually …Hi Hans,
This is not a known bug in ReportBuilder. As a test, try downloading a
trial version of ReportBuilder 7.03 and see if that helps. If not, please
send a small example demonstrating the issue in .zip fomat to

Thanks for the suggestion. There probably should be a way to insert header
regions as you described. I will note your suggestion in our wish list for
a future release.

Hi Barry,
Try placing your grid headers inside a TppRegion, then setting the region to
ShiftWithParent. In my testing this seemed to solve the problem.

Hi Rodolfo,
I am still unable to recreate this behavior on my machine. Which edition of
RB are you using, ie. Standard, Pro, Enterprise...? Please provide the
exact steps you took to recreate the issue using our End-User demo …Hi Rodolfo,
Are you experiencing this problem at runtime or designtime? Are you able to
recreate it using our EndUser demos? In my testing (using the designer at
designtime and EndUser demo at runtime) I was not able to recrea…Hi Rodolfo,
An easier way to do this would be to place a subreport inside each header of
your reports and load a common template into each subreport, taking the
place of the header. This way you will just have to change one tem…Hi Wayne,
Thanks for evaluating ReportBuilder.
1. Unfortunately ReportBuilder does not support template inheritance. As
an alternative you could place subreports in each of your descendant reports
and dynamically lo…Hi Rodolfo,
All dialogs in ReportBuilder (with the exception of the Designer) are

You can get access to the SQL of a report at runtime by accessing the
DataModule.DataViews property. From there you can typecast each dataview as
a TdaQueryDataView and access the SQL property. Below is an example on h…Hi David,
Are you loading a report template in your application? If so, you may be
loosing some of your event handlers after you load them. Check out the
