Hi Joseph,
Instead of checking the Report.Modified yourself, try setting the
Report.SaveAsTemplate property to True on the templates you are loading.
This will check if the report has been modified automatically and may fix
Hi Bill,
Instead of using the FindChildControl, you will want to use the
FindComponent method. This method will find the given component by name
inside it's owner... ie. the form.

Hi Rick,
The code you have seems to be ok, and I have never seen this behavior
before. As an alternative, take a look at demo 122 (dm0122.pas) located in
the RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\... directory. This is a slightly differen…Hi Bob,
The reason you are receiving an error is that your original package is
loading certain dcu files and the dll file is trying to re-register the same
files. The problem with using dll files is that just based on the fact …Hi Brian,

Marc is correct, when printing this many reports, the bottleneck will
definitely be either data access or your printer. To speed things up, be
sure to turn the report outline off and set Report.CachePages to False.
…Hi Daniel,
How are you converting them manually? Your best bet would be to stream the
binary template files and then call the Delphi method ObjectBinaryToText on
them (see the Delphi help for more information). This is essenti…Hi Rudy,
Check out the following example which fills the empty detail space with
lines by adding draw commands directly to the page. You could do something
similar with the shape you are using.

TeeChart 6.01 has been tested to work correctly with ReportBuilder 7.03. It
should just be a matter of installing TeeChart, then reinstalling

…Hi Rodger,
Be sure you do not have Report.CachePages set to true. This would be the
only reason I can think of that your OnCalcFields event would not fire for
your query. You can also use the Report.BeforePrint to set these va…Hi Anila,
First, in order for the DBArchiveReader to work, you will also need a Name
field in your table. This enables the DBArchiveReader to load the correct
archive because it has no way of telling them appart otherwise.
Hi Dmitry,
1. Table Views are not supported in the currently release. However, we have
had a few customers modified the DADE plug-ins for various databases, to add
support for views. The TdaSession.GetTableNames method is the r…Hi Adam,
Thanks for evaluating ReportBuilder!
For your first question. To create a subreport in code you will need a
TppSubreport (the component you place on your main report) and a

Being a Digital Metaphors engineer, my opinion of ReportBuilder is probably
obvious so I will gladly answer your questions below and hopefully some
others reading this newsgroup will give you their opinions on our produ…Hello,
This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. As a test, try downloading
the trial version of ReportBuilder 7.03 and testing with that. Be sure to
back up any templates you are using before trying to load them in the ne…Hi Grec,
Unfortunately the crosstab component can only be linked to a dataset, not to
the specific records in a group. To get this effect you will need to set up
a Master Detail relationship with your data and link the crosstab…Hi,

Use the Report.Parameters property to access the value of parameters you may

This is the correct way you will want to make calculations in ReportBuilder.

TppVariables with the OnCalc event correctly. Sorry about the delay…Hello,
I'm sorry, my wording was wrong. The code that handles the streaming of
templates in ReportBuilder is the same for all 3 versions. (ie. RB for
Delphi 5, 6, and 7). The only difference is the version of Delphi you are

For the most part, this should work correctly, although we have seen
