Upgrade to Report Builder 7?

rbuser

Hello all,

I was just wondering, what are the advantages of Report builder 7
over Report builder 5? If you know or can point me to a site that
has that information on it, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

I suggest downloading RB 7.02 trial edition from our website
http://www.digital-metaphors.com and give it a test spin. RB 5.0 is nearly
3 years old and as you can imagine, in addition to many features and
enhancements there are also patches and fixes that have been incorporated
into each of our releases. The RBuilder help file contains a listing of the
major features along with descriptions of each (which I've pasted below). RB
7.02 is even more flexible then RB 5.0.

What's New for 7.02
TeeChart 6 Support for Delphi 5, 6 and 7
Background Printing
Custom Parameters


What's New for 7.01
TeeChart 5.03 for Delphi 7
Print Preview Text Searching


What's New for 7.0

Server Edition
Thread Safe DADE, RAP and Report Engine
Outline

PreviewFormSettings
DBImage Auto Loading
Enhanced TeeChart Support


What's New for 6.0

RBuilder.ini Enhancements


What's New for 5.5

DataView Linking
DADE Unit Name changes
KeepTogether for SubReports, etc.
ColumnTraversal for Detail Band
TextAlignment for Memo
Discontinued properties and methods
