Cracked it!
Thanks for pointing me in roughly the right direction....

I'm sorry Jim, I'm not understanding how this will put a Combobox component
on my report? If I use a TppDBText field and set it's data field to a
particular datafield, it is just going to be populated by that field from
the database?… -
Can you clarify this first method at all?

do you mean actually going to the .pas file and changing

and modifying it in the .dfm file as well?

The problem is, that the appliction is to big, and extracting parts of it
want work at all.

Hi
I just found out the detailed position, where Report Builder hangs :

If i click first time to print all works fine.

I just tried to set ModalCancelDialog to FALSE, and now i don't get any AV

I will try it some more imes, but i think the error has to do with this

I don't think i can extract the Report Builder part of my application !
Why did it work with the older RB6 fine and now with the RB7 i get all those
exceptions ?
Can you give me some hints where to search for the bug ?
The problem is that the application is really big.
The call for showing the preview is :
frReportBuilder.ppReport1.DeviceType := 'Screen';

If I would get a dollar everytime a customer claimed : 'It doesn't work'
'What do you mean, doesn't work. The screen stays blank/black'

To follow up on what Jim stated, please provide DM with demos of what the
issues are--and this helps all of us. DM is very faithful in fixing bugs,
but it's impossible to fix "It doesn't work"

…Jim,
When I set the property 'ShowCancelDialog' to false all is fine, no AV, no

Jim,
I have the same problem as Hans.

3. I choose another printer
