If you change the font size of the cells in the crosstab, you can get a
smaller crosstab with more rows per page. If you need the font to be a
specific height, then you could generate the crosstab using a point size of
say, 4pt., and… -
You can't natively. The crosstab has autosizing columns. You could
manipulate these in the OnEndPage event by accessing the draw commands for
the lines and texts in the crosstab. A better approach would be to create
and register you… -
You can set the crosstab properties:
ParentWidth = False
and
Stretch = False
Then resize the height of the crosstab to the area you wish to have it print
statically in the band.

Another option, since you always have a fixed number of detail bands per
page, is to use the PageStyle band. This band can be resized to the height
of the page. It will print behind all the other bands that generate. You can
create th… -
Here is a demo which uses the draw command architecture and the
Report.OnEndPage event to draw lines after the page has been generated right
before it is sent to the output device. You could modify this demo to print

No, we aren't working on a Kylix version at this time.

Create a group in the main report based on the linking key field. Set the
group to be KeepTogether.

There is a known issue with subreports with columns in the current version.
We're working on a fix, but don't have a workaround at this time.

The detail datapipeline has a SkipWhenNoRecords boolean property that will
cause the master record to be skipped when there are no detail records (this
is when it is set to true).

The label should be controlled by the region, when the region moves to
another page via KeepTogether. Can you send us a demo project at
support@digital-metaphors.com which shows this behavior? You could try
downloading RB 6.02 as we… -
Please, don't repost on a new thread, thanks, unless you feel we've

You could use the end user solution and the ReportExplorer to load the
templates from file(using the report designer) and save them down to the
database. You should be able to simply delete the template files. The

Set the Report.Template.FileName property to determine where to save the

You can loop through the bands of the report and then loop through each
band's objects. There is an article in the tech-tips newsgroup in the Code
Based thread which does this.

Natalie, there is a conversion problem in the example you provided. We'll
let you know when we have it resolved. The series is not owned by the form,
as it was in previous versions. Thankyou, for your patience.

I'm emailing you how to add support for TeeChart 5.02 Final Release with RB
6.02. There is a readme.txt in the zip file which describes the process.

TeeChart 5.02 has been released as a final version. RB 6.02 works with the
beta version of TeeChart 5.02. We're working on rebuilding the packages.
Currently, RB 6.02 doesn't support the 5.02 final release. Thankyou for
your patienc… -
This sounds like the design time and runtime packages have a mismatch. Try
uninstalling the RBTeechart packages from delphi and recompiling them and
install them as described in our Readme.doc in the installed

RB 6.02 supports the old Teechart 5.02 beta. The full release of Teechart
5.02 is not supported by RB yet as it was just recently released.
Phil, Thankyou, for the suggestions.

Take a look at TeeChart. www.TeeMach.com The latest version of
ReportBuilder 6.02 supports TeeChart 5.02 for Delphi 6.

Are you using the SystemVariable component to show the page count or are you
saying that the Report.AbsolutePageCount property is returning the wrong
value? Can you recreate this using one of our master-detail demo reports?

It needs to be set on the datapipeline component. If the data is coming

The detail band does print, even when there is no detail data for it. The
reason is that there is still master data (1 record), because of the left

There is a demo of using the text pipeline in the main reports demo project

RB itself doesn' t use a huge amount of memory. You can run into resource

In the Report.PrinterSetup object set the PrinterName property to Screen.

True, you can move the bpls and with through Delphi, the bpls can be found
and used to build your application. You'll have to search the client's hard
