  • I found it, the database type had changed to Paradox from Interbase.
    Thanks

  • The help file indicates not using ppReport1.RemoveGroup(ppReport1.Groups[0])
    to remove a group.

    ppReport.Group[0].Report:= nil;


  • Chris,

    For whatever reason, I am experiencing Access violations and runtime errors.
    They occur only after a Print to the screen. It does appear that the default
    FPreviewForm is nil after ProcessMessages is called in

  • Mike,


    Assuming that the preview form isn't freed doesn't harm anything. You'll
    have a memory leak if more than one preview form is created without freeing
    them - but no AV.
    You better go with BPLs rather than DLLs.

  • Alexander,

    Demos do work. I've set up a couple of simple applications just to try
    different ReportBuilder methods. As a matter of fact, I was able to design,
    and run the desired report from a standalone EXE. To the screen, pri…

  • Hello again,

    To further clarify, the RB Report object is on a form which is not part of
    an EXE. It is part of a DLL. Our application is segregated into DLLs.
    We've stepped through this, and it appears the problem (Access viola…

  • Chris,

    Yes, the error is raised outside the debugger. I am not explicitly freeing
    anything. Only because I have not programmatically created anything.
    Please see the additional post regarding the fact that this form is part of…

  • Hi Mike,

    first, when you load templates at runtime use a blank report.
    Do you receive any AV when not calling a report action?
    What happens when you replace 'ppReport1' with a new component?
    Are you freeing any components b…

  • Hi again,

    Since I first posted, I have tried to isolate the problem. I now have only
    a ppReport component on the form. The report contains 1 text label in the
    page header. At runtime, I load the report template, and do a

    When I asked this question I was by a customer (with my laptop) and my
    default printer was not there...

    Later, on the customer's machines this didn't happened. And this morning in
    my office it rolls...

  • I must not have been clear about my problem. I have all the WPTools
    support unit installed properly. They work fine except for the
    landscape problem I mentioned. I can get the report to print on some
    Inkjets by increasing the page w…
  • Hi John,

    register your own dialog.
    I don't show the dialog, but write the unknown property/method into a log
    file, that my human report designer knows - Ah, here's a report I should
    open and save.

    here some code …
  • Thank you, it works fine,
    but, is it possible to put it on the calc tab of report builder (event
    BeforeGenerate of detail band) ?
    In this case, I have a problem with the GetBand(...) function and the uses
    ppTypes.

  • Thats why i love RB. There's always an ellegant solution to almost all the
    requirements. Don't get tired of say it: great tool and wonderful design.
    bye

  • Hi,

    I saw this property and thought it would do the trick, but no - still
    get the same error.

    Any further suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

  • Hi tao,

    I would use e.g. the ESC key as interruptor. Since you have already a
    'ProcessMessages', it will be no problem to read the keyboard.

  • Why ReportBuilder don't raise an exception when the user make some mistake

    i.e.:
