Assign pipelines dynamically

edited May 2004 in General
Hello,

I create run-time reports with TppReport.Template properties. In these
reports, I can have 1, 2, 18 or more pipelines. The pipelines are
dynamically create.

My problem is : when I load my report, it loses the references on the
pipelines which are dynamically created. So, no data are loaded...

How can I load correctely my data with my dynamics pipelines ???? Thanks

    Hi Alex,

    You could possibly use the Template events to connect your report to the
    proper pipelines when it is loaded. You would want to use the OnLoadEnd
    event specifically. This could however turn out to be difficult being that
    you will have to create a case for each template and know ahead of time
    which datapipeline is supposed to connect to it.

    Another option would be to keep the data access local to the template file
    by using DADE. This way you can create all your queries and tables ahead of
    time or on the fly and since they are already part of the template, there
    will be no reason to reference a datapipeline.
