Store 'OnPrint' event code in template?

rbuser

Hi guys,

I've read tech-tips on templates, I've read the manual, and I've read couple
of topics here, but it looks like I am missing something.

I want to have a report where some components have code for their 'OnPrint'
event. This code would reference that component by the name (like: if AMOUNT
< 0 then ppLABEL1.FONT.COLOR := clRed ...).

Is it possible to save this 'OnPrint' code with the template? If so, can
someone point me in the right direction? (Some example code would be nice.)

Thanks.

Zoran.

Yes, use RAP, which you need the Enterprise version to have. That is what
RAP is all about.

I have Pro version, so I guess I'll be doing things the usual way.

Thanks for the answer.

If you have ReportBuilder Professional, you can always upgrade to
Enterprise.

If you use RAP, and change an event handler for one of your customer's
reports, then you only need to update their template. If you change the
event handler, which was written in Delphi, and not RAP, you are going to
need to update their executable.

You've convinced me. I've upgraded to RB6Ent.
