  • Dude you're great !
  • Hi Nico!
    Many thanks for answers, I have found those events now! This is somewhat
    important difference between older RB's and RB10. Sorry that I haven't been
    reading more carefully Your first post, where You said I should look at

    No, I just need to store printer settings during execution of the program.
    If user closes the application and start it again, then he/she will start
    with defaults.
    I tried this on my home and job computer, same on both.…
  • Hi Nico!
    Thank You for Your answers.
    AD1: I will update my RB to 10.03 soon and we'll see if then I'll have
    events tab in RB designer. But what if...?

    I can see from your example how to control this if I always wanted a pdf
    file but I am using the Print Dialog option PrintToFile and can not see

  • Hi Nico

    Thanks for the sample project it has been of great help - I now have a
    nearly working solution.

  • Hi Nico

    Sorry to be thick but I have tried to understand this a couple of times.

    How do you mean "implement this event", what does the draw command look
    like.

    Could you be a little more explicit with your examp…

  • Al:

    I've *never* converted my reports to the new version (been with DM since
    Piparti Pro 2 (maybe 1, I can't remember) and Delphi 1)--I just let it occur
    when the user loads the report. Never had a problem.

  • Nico,

    Thanks for the reply. A little more information: I have over 400 reports.
    Is there a batch conversion available? I don't want to have to manually
    individually load so many reports.

    Thanks,

    Hi Stef,

    You can download the SDK (which works quite well) from the DYMO site.

  • Hello -

    Just thought I'd add my two cents here. While I'm not currently using
    RB's mail merge functionality, I will be later in the year when my team
    rewrites a project to use it. When that time comes, I will definitely
  • Hi,

    I have the same problem. See my posting of 16 november 2005 "Custom
    MailMerge". The posting continued by e-mail stating that a new event should
    be added by DM that could be used for custom mailmerge. Nico agreed and

    Default the groupfooter is printed directly under the detailband.

    I now try to print the groupfooter direct above the footerband.

  • Hi,

    Thanks for your answer, but I don't get the band on the correct position

    It is the intention that the groupfooter is printed before the footerband
    and summaryband. Can you make an example for me?

  • Nick,

    Thanks. One of my programmers has created a sample and is emailing it to
    the address you gave. His name is Mike Warren. Please watch for it and
    let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks again,

  • Thanks for the reply.

    It should be version 10.03. Lisa sent me an email with the following
    "snippet" in it:

  • Hi again!

    Another question:
    The orginal Report was TwoPass but when I repreview the report from
    Archiv it seams to be a onepass-report. I see only Page 1 and not Page

    How can I change this?

    Sounds good.

    Another question: I would like to add a 'REPRINT ON ' on every
