Pat,
You will need to create a descendent of the TppPreview class and override
the PrintStateChangeEvent. Then you can adjust that method to enable the
cancel/close button as you need it. You will need to set the caption of th… -
Pat,
When is the cancel button disabled? Please give me the steps to take which
would allow me to see the error. By default the cancel button is disabled
when there is nothing to cancel.

Brett,
Make sure the printer driver on the other machine is updated. ReportBuilder
(including the previewer) relies on the printer driver to paginate reports.
If you are using a different printer with that machine, make sure th… -
Nicolas,
Below is a link to an example of how to create a Report Explorer as an MDI
child. This should help you solve any error you are getting.
It is possible to replace the Report Wizard with your own by creating a
descendent to the TppReportWizard class in the ppRptWiz.pas file. Below is
an example of replacing the existing Report Wizard with a custom one.

1. The source code for RAP and Server is not included with ReportBuilder.
2. One solution is to include a script at the beginning of your

To view a list of available pipelines, all pipelines in your application
must reside on the main form or datamodule. Also, be sure that all
pipelines are visible and connected properly to their reports.

There are a couple ways to concatinate multiple fields. The easiest way is
probably to create a TppVariable and add the fields to it directly from the
datapipeline. Something like this...

Try placing the DBText into a region with stretching enabled to display a
border around the text. Otherwise you can draw each line or shape where you
need it on the report. For a grid to display totals, check out the Cro…Richard,
The DrawCommand does not surface double click or mouse movement information.
It may be possible however to use a timer to find out where the mouse is
located on a small interval or the OnMouseMove event on the main form…Your best approach to this would probably be to create a TStringList to hold
all the unique records in the detail band. Use the
DetailBand.BeforeGenerate event. Once a record prints, check to see if it

Create a group on a static invisible label somewhere in your report and
place the footer information in the group footer. This will print at the
end of the entire column. Next you can adjust the print position of theI am curious why you need to know if the text appears or not? It is
possible to implement your own SuppressRepeatedValues property. Below is a
link to an example of how to do this.
in SuppressRepeatedValues Comment by nicocizik April 2003Kevin,
Make sure the datafields are in the region. You can check this by dragging
the region across the report and checking if the datafields move as well.
Once they are in the region, setting its visibility to false should do …Yep, that's it.

Reid,
Yes, however, if you still have components in a report during Delphi
design-time, they will get compiled with your .exe unless you delete them or
load a new report into the designer. Be sure to delete your components
Reid,
The Report Templates are not comiled in the .exe. There are either file
based or data based. Keep in mind there is a report component on the form
and that report and its embedded template gets comiled into the .exe. Onc…Hi Tony,
I am unable to reproduce this behavior on my own machine. Please send a
simple example to support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll take a look for
you.

Reid,
Can you reproduce this error with one of the ReportBuilder demos? Please do
so and let me know the exact steps I can take to reproduce the error on my
computer.

Tony,
Since nested regions are not supported, you can use a group instead. Try
creating a group (based on the key field) around the detail band and set the
Group.KeepTogether property to true. This way all three regions will k…Niel,
When trying to emulate the mailmerge demo, be sure that the
Report.DetailBand.PrintCount is set to 1. This way, only one record from
the detail band will print per page.

It is possible to set the 'Count' SQL function using DADE in the 'calc' tab
of the Query Designer. You will have to select the 'Expression' option and
enter the function in manually. Then you must be sure to group by a…Dirk,
Your best approach for this type of report would be to start by generating
all pages initially, pulling them out of the report, and placing them in a
list. Then you can reorder them as you like and send them to the device…Dirk,
I'm not sure if I completely understand what you are asking. If you are
trying to print multiple copies of your duplexed report, try placing your
Report.Print command in a loop and printing from there.

Dirk,
The only way I can see to accomplish this is to format your report manually
so it will print the way you need it. You can do this by placing Section
style subreports for each new page and placing a blank subreport where y…Justin,
