We have a number of customers who have built solutions like this or are
a building them now. I talked to several at the recent BorCon 2001.

For RB 6 we added some thread safe code based upone suggestions from
Mike Leftwich - one of our customers who is building a web based

Article: Recompiling TExtraDevices
-----------------------------------------------------
1. Select Install Packages in Delphi.
Have not heard of this before. I have RB installed into D4 on my machine
here and all works fine.
I searched my hard driver for RLink32 - looks like this the Delphi
linker (I notice rlink32.dll for each version of Delphi …
See my reply to the post above this one. Sounds like you are second one
to report this behavior.
Try compiling one of the RB demos - does it have this issue.
Check for conflicts with other componnets in your applicat…
Check out the latest demos in RBuilder\Demos\EndUser\Custom DataViews.
Please update to Delphi 6. We have never solved this for D5, but with D6
it works fine.
You can use the ReportDesigner at Delphi design-time for a Report on a
TDataModule if you are using Delphi 6....
You will need to modify the Requires section of the rbIP66 package. All
of the package names that it requires should be D6 packages.
Thanks for the feedback. Honestly, cannot recall why the margin is being
added, but now that is there we cannot remove it without affecting
existing reports. Therefore perhaps your idea of a LeftMargin property
is the way to go …
One easy way to do this would be to set TppImage.Visible to True/False.
TppImage basically works like Delphi's TImage. It has Picture property
etc.
I researched this and can find no way to clear the image other than …
Make sure that you have a default printer driver installed.
I can send you a patch that contains a fix for this.
1. Make sure that a default printer is installed.
2. I can e-mail you a patch that corrects the issue.
When using the TextPipeline you must specify the max length for each
field in the record. These are summed to provide a max record length.
Check the nodatabase examples in RBuilder\Demos\Reports\Demo.dpr
If possible, pleas…
Sorry, I did not check the results of the demo carefully enough.
I reworked the demo, please download it again...

If you are using the latest version of IB Express, then that
is the problem. For compatibility reasons, ReportBuilder's
LIB units are compiled using the plain Delphi X.0 units with
no patches applied.
To solve thi…
You can use the Report.OnPreviewFormCreate event - see the RBuilder.hlp
online help.
1. Define a Group that never breaks and set the Group.PrintPosition
property to control the vertical print position on the page.
2. Use a SummaryBand and set the SummaryBand.PrintPosition property. You
can optionally set t…
Currently no plans - we are taking a "wait and see" approach to Kylix.
Check out the printer section of the RBuilder\Demos\Reports\Demo.dpr
project. There is an example of sending a report to multiple
printers....
I will send you a patch for this.
Please do not crosspost messages. Pick one appropriate newsgroup.
Have you tried using Report.BeforeAutoSearchDialogCreate?
In D6, the unit is called DesignIntf.
It is NOT included as a .dcu - only inside a Delphi design-time only
package. This unit is only referenced in RB units that are part of an RB
design-time only package.
Thanks for pointing this out.

Tech Tip: Selecting Paper Bins for Each Page
--------------------------------------------
Sometimes you may want to print the first page of a report to the
manual bin…
1. With Delphi 6, you can put the object on the TDataModule - no
problems.
2. For Delphi 5, you can do put them on a TForm and just never "show"
the form. See RBuilder\Demos\Reports\Demo.dpr. It does this. The report
I will send you a patch that corrects this issue.
1. If the report is set to psOnePass, it will only generate the first
page and then stop - when previewing.
2. There is a Report.PageLimit property you can try using that, but you
will need to set it back to 0, prior to pr…
When you use RB 6.x to open an old report, it will convert it. Once
converted it cannot be opened by a prior version.
