Hi Brian,
This is more than likely a printer driver issue. If you are printing a
rather large report, the driver could be using too many resources to render
the image correctly. As a test, try setting the DirectDraw property t… -
Hi Stan,
Sorry, I did not understand the issue the first time. Check out the example

Hi Stan,
You can limit the amount of detail bands printed by setting the
DetailBand.PrintCount property.

Hi Peter,
If you would like to exclude a certain subreport, you cas simply set its
visibility to False. You will then need to set it's band and datapipeline
properties to nil so it will not access the dataset again. Remember t…Ray,
I'm confused, if the detail data is too large to fit on a page, do you want
your data to be cut off and never printed? If this is the case, you can
always set the PrintHeight of the detail band to Static and adjust it base…Hi Mark,
Unfortunately, this is the way the outline works when you reset a report, or
first load the report. You will see that the outline is not present in it's
entirety until you browse to the last page of the report. Try se…Hi Mark,
How are you re-drawing the page? If you call Report.Reset, this should
reset the report engine as well as the report outline. If you are not
already, try calling Report.Reset after changing the fields in the report.Hi Neil,
Unfortunately the archetecture of ReportBuilder does not allow this type of
report to be made. In order for this to work, the detail band would need to
be able to merge with the output of the subreport and there would …Todd,
I am having trouble reproducing this one. I'm testing with RB 7.03, Delphi
5, Windows 2000 machine. My test app consists of a report and a button on a
form. The report only contains a TppBarCode object in the detail ba…Hi Todd,
If you simply add Chr(175) to the data of the barcode directly and by
itself, can you see the barcode? As a test, try taking every thing out of
the data property except for the upside down underscore and see if you get…Todd,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? Are you seeing this on screen
and on paper? Also, does this issue occur with every type of barcode or
just a certain type (ie. UPC-A, Code 128)? In my testing with the code<…Hi Lavlesh,
When loading templates you will need to use the template events to change
the report settings for each template. Check out the article below for more
information on using the included template events.

You need to add ppTypes to your uses clause.
Pretty much all of the ReportBuilder specific types are located in the

If you would like to send an example to us, please send it in .zip format to

Try placing two subreports in your detail band side by side with the
ParentWidth set to False. Then connect the subreports to the separate
datapipelines.

Hi,
Sorry, I mis-read your first post. Before trying to solve the issue with
the DetailBand.AfterGenerate, try making all calculations related to your
total variable in the OnCalc event of another variable inside the detail
Hello,
If you are calculating a sum in the page footer and using a dynamic height
detail band, you are probably seeing a limitation of ReportBuilder. The
only way to work around this issue is to make the calculation for the sum…Hi Alessandro,
ReportBuilder supports limited form inheritance. You can only place the
report object on the ancestor form. It looks as though you also have your
datapipeline present on your ancestor form. Then when the descen…Hi Kevin,
Windows 95 and 98 are notorious for running out of resources very easily.
Test your application to be sure there are no memory or resource leaks.
Also, if these are large bitmaps, try reducing the size or image quality…Joseph,
Section style subreports are really meant to allow users to include numerous
completed reports in one report object. Simply placing a section style
subreport in a band with other objects tends to cause the report engine…Hi Joseph,
My suggestion would be to create a group around every detail band then
follow the directions in the article below to get each group header to start
on an odd page.

Are you loading this report as a template by chance? If you assign this
event to a report then load it as a template, you have the possiblity of
loosing your event handlers. Check out the following article for moreHi Joseph,
The easiest way to accomplish this would be to place a section style
subreport inside the summary band, with its printer settings set to print to
a different bin. If this will not work, you can check which band you a…Hi Pete,
Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you using? Which band is this

ReportBuilder by default will use the current regional settings as the

changed manually. All display format information is retrieved from th…Hi Adam,
Adding TextSearch to a custom preview designed visually is a little more

Another thought... are you by chance loading a template when you try to
print your report? If so, this property could be getting erased by the
template setting. You can fix this issue by either loading the template at…Iwan,
This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. Which version of
