  • Out of interest. do Digital Metaphors have any plans to support VCL.NET?

    I guess it's probably too early to commit, but can you give a rough idea of
    when RB.NET might be ready? We are planning the conversion of our product to

  • The BottomOffset property does not appear to work in this instance when the
    data in DBMemo3 is null. It does work fine for every row that has actual
    data.

  • This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

  • I got it figured out with some help from STARMicronics and Marc Antheunis.

    Here what I think (my opinion) was going on. I was using the Raster driver
    which converts everything to a bmp. Windows was seeing my escape command and
  • Hi Nard,

    Assuming that this works. This will basically limit me to these particular
    events correct? There isn't anyway to drop a variable on the report and get
    the escape command to occur at that point?

    Also, I've s…
  • I've since gotten RB to pass the escape command. The problem now is that
    it's always at the start of the print job. It doesn't matter where I do the
    escape command it does not get put in the middle of the print job. I've
    tried Varr…
  • Assuming timing is the issue, at what point should I try to run my escape
    command. For example, should I put a variable on the report and then do the
    escape in its OnPrint event?
  • Hi,

    I own RB9 but can't use it since the product is
    in Delphi 5.

    Thanks,

  • Hi,

    The report had labels for a first page.
    At the bottom of this there is a section subreport to create a new page.

    This subreport has a detail band with labels on it
    and at the bottom of it there is a section subrep…
  • Thanks, you are a pal :)

  • I solved the issue, it was just necessary to add the daDBExpress unit to the
    uses clause.
    But what is shaking my head is that no conversion of the templates was
    necessary after adding the unit to the uses...

    Thanks to Nic…
  • OK, It worked fine, but now I don't know how to set up the connection to the
    database.

    In previous version (6.03) I just set my Designer.DataSettings.DatabaseName
    to my SQLConnection in FormCreate event and then when I Click F…

    aprecite very much your help here.

  • I will see what you mentioned, just one question.
    Is there any way to convert programaticaly my reorts?

    thanks

  • After a re-install of Delphi 7 and applying the update I've installed ReportBuilder 9.02 again.
    Everything appears to be Ok except I still don't have ReportBuilder in my Add/Remove programs.

  • Nard...

    Thank your for your help. I've downloaded/installed again today but with same results.
    I think I have a corrupt installation because ReportBuilder is not found in my Add/Remove programs
    after installation and I've never …
  • hi preston (again ),

    now this is really easy, just to to page setup, select the star line printer
    driver and you'll see the printer fonts in the fonts combo of RB
    furthermore you should now be able to use the escape function...…
  • If I place a TppDBMemo field on my RB report form, it allows me to assign a
    db memo field to it.
    If I place a TppDBRichEdit field on my RB report form, it gives an Access
    error in rtl90.dbl as soon as I assign a db memo field to it.
  • Thanks for all the info, Nico.

    I was able to accomplish what I needed by adding a line of code to the
    OnGetText event of the field that starts the new row. I saw in searching
    the newsgroup that this solution had been sought b…
  • Concerning the Print To File method:

  • The BandsPerRecord property appears to repeat the entire report and is not
    giving me what I need. Here is a simple example of what I want to do.

    Let's say I have three fields on a record called Amt1, Amt2, and Amt3. I

  • Hi Nico,
    I will try to debug the source, but it is a little big , and i dont know
    exactly where to put a break point.

    finally i was able to deal with the tutorial's example, and i included the

  • Hello this error seems to have vanished now no idea what I did!

  • Hi Nico

    We have had to resort to changing to using a file based volume

    Due to the massive amount of time I wasted on this problem, I dont know when
