Long load time if memo used

edited April 2004 in General
Hi.

I've got the following problem. Almost all the reports are instant. That's
great. But when I add memo to a report the first report takes long time to
generate (about 4-5 seconds). If I close the report and try to generate it
again -- everything works fine.

What is the problem?

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Pavel,

    This could be an issue with your data access. The first time you load a
    report, ReporBuilder will access each record in your dataset with could take
    a little more time depending on the data being accessed. As a test, take
    ReportBuilder out of the picture and place a DBMemo on a form an try to
    access the same memo ReportBuilder is for the entire dataset and see if the
    time of load is similar.

    Pavel,

    This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. In my testing (using the
    exact instructions you gave below), I was unable to recreate this behavior.
    The report and memo loaded instantaneously. One thing to note is that
    setting the caption of a memo will not affect the text the memo shows. You
    will need to use the TppMemo.Text property.
