  • Switched finally to D7.

    Have the same problem, but, when changing as you suggest i'm still getting
    the error that ne Never-Build Package rbTC77 must be recompiled.

    I once had a suggestion to rebuild the complete TeeChart s…

    Okay that appears to be working, but how do I tell the report to use my

    I found it.

    In Developer's Guide 2nd edition (p.324) the instruction say to make the
    Datatype field a char of size 1 (varchar(1)). It allowed only the first
    character of the real datatype in the fields table. It was a …

    1. I am using the standard Paradox BDE database that comes with Delphi.

    table) the type field is blank. When I define a query to my tables the type

    Thanks! Do you have one that compiles under Delphi 7. I thought I
    reworked it enough to run but the archives all preview empty.
  • Hi Nico,

    Thanks for the revised code. I made additional 2 changes: I made sure that
    even number of pages is created in PrintToCache (the code to do that was
    there in the old example, and it works), and in ReorderPages I've chang…
  • Nico,

    Your Booklet.zip example prints 8 pages and all works fine. Try to print
    several records more so that report expands to 9 pages. You'll see what I
    mean.

    Thanks.

    That's interesting, I didn't know that. I belive the problem *does* exist
    even if sent to the screen, and I know the problem arises on more than…

  • Nico,
    With help like you're giving me there is no need
    for apologies... Rbuilder support is terrific as all your
    users will concur!

    Thanks once again,

  • Nico,

    Actually I had already done all of that !except!
    FSession.DataOwner := Self;
    That fixed it!

    Another question:
    Is it possible to pre-load SQL into the designer?
    That would allow me to store the S…
  • Nico,

    Exactly what I was looking for... thanks.

    I'm using DBISAM. Could you give me a hint as to what else I need to

  • The end user design example would allow you to create such

    I'll try that.
    Kind regards

  • Hi

    I was originally using the JITPipeline and a blank report: there are also
    quite a few other reports in the project connected to ADO data sources.
    I'll try re-installing as you suggest - it is weird, 'cos it only just
    sta…
  • Fair enough. I've been trying to recompile my RB6 to be
    used in D7. We are not interested in upgrading to RB7
    as we're happy with RB6. We do not want the new featuers
    and or any other fixes in RB7. We just want to be able to run our

    Solution 1:

    Define a Group that starts on a new page when
    it breaks. Then use the Group.OnGetBreakValue

    trick to this? I had to reinstall Delphi and since have not been able to
