Hi,
if you replace the dbtext with a dbmemo you can achive your goal.
enjoy,
Ron.

Sorry, My Bad. I wasn't populating the field with any value. Thanks allot for your
help.
-
Here is a sample of the code I'm using to set the fields.
GroupHeader1.Visible := true;
GroupFooter1.Visible := true;
lMerchTypeVendor.Caption := 'Vendor'; //TppLabel - Header Item seems to be

I just put set the datafields on the line of code just before calling print with no
luck.

Hi,
Did you try to set it after creating the report and before calling print?
-
The report is compiled into the program, not loaded from an rtm or a database.
-
Hi,
pse see below.

I'm changing the datafield property of the TppDBText control before the report
is printed (property changed from Vendor to Merchandise Type). I tried both
before the report is run at all, and in the beforeprint event.

Hi,
did you use the beforeprint event of the tppdbtext or did you change the
text within the database. If the change is within the database you need
to reload the report (update all caching information).
enjoy,
Until then, you can create a "Repair" routine that browses through the whole
report and recreates components that should always be present. Run this
whenever the designer has been in use.
yes. to get rid of the errors, i opened the folder and item tables before I
executed the report explorer, and I set the validateSettings property to
false. This seems to work, but I am still curious why the pipeline couldn't
be opened…Jim,
It is not Wptools's fault as I get the same result with RB's richtext
component. I have had these list index out of bound errors since I've
been using RB from time to time. I notice a lot of other users in this
forum h…The spaces are embedded in a string that is displayed in a DBText field.
Nothing special about the space character, just the character that gets
generated when the user presses the space bar.
FWIW - The LaserJet 4 is a 4P.
…Is the fix pretty simple to implement? If so, could you post the fix or
email it to me? Otherwise, bummer!
Cool Jim...when do you expect this release to be "released"?!
Thanks for the reply...that could help. However, I'd like to understand
something a little better here. If that's the problem, they why is it that I
can use the TChart components (same version 4.02) on my regular forms (not
report for…If you don't ave the full version o teechart (available from teemach.com),
you will beed to build your project using packages to make it work.
Hope this helps

Hi Thomas,
are you using templates?
regards,
Chris Ueberall;
Here is something that works fine:
In the FormClose event:
ppReport1.DataPipeline:= nil;
You probably should have done this in the ppReport close event.
I thought I fixed it, but after trying again, the same bug came back.
Found the problem. An ASTA component needed to be closed!
procedure TDataModule2.FormDestroy(Sender: TObject);
begin
AstaClientDataSet1.Active:= false;
ADOConnection1.Connected:= false
end;
Hi Sanford,
I don't think you found a bug in RB, and your fix isn't a fix but a
workaround.
Where exactly was the exception raised, was it in RB source?
I am able to close my application in preview mode without any error.As a general rule is better to always use TQuerys or ADOQueries, or DBExpress
Queries than tables against SQL Databases.
The TTable and it's friends (ADOTable, etc) where created for Paradox and dBase.
You should use Queries on all th…Thanks Jim for your time and the information you provided. You were exactly
correct in that the printed look is different than the screen look. The
printed comes out just fine.

Ok. Right now I'm sending the information to the screen. I have not sent
the report to the printer. Is the printer driver still an issue?

Just use them as any Master/detail relationship in Delphi. The detail
query must have pararameters with the same name that the ones that links
on the master table.
You don't have to do any else on RB.
Is there a way to modify a preview button property using this technique?
The only way I've been able to do it is to make the changed to a saved copy
of ppPreview.pas.

Use 1stClass StatusBar. Displays the hints even if ShowHint is false!
Yes, I understand the TPrinter deficiencies. The TdfsPageSetupDlg
encapsulates the standard page setup dialog that Wordpad shows
