Creating a custom viewer

rbuser

I have downloaded the file 'myCloseButtonPreviewPlugin.zip' which is an
example of how to create a custom preview form. When trying to compile the
project I get the error:

'[Fatal Error] ReportOnForm.pas(6): File not found: 'Variants.dcu'

Can anyone help mw with this.

I am trying to find the simplest way to create a custom viewer.

Hi Matthew,

you must be using D5 or older. Delete the reference to 'Variants' in the uses clause and see what happens.

Hi Chris,

Thanks, that fixed the error and allowed the project to compile.

However, I would like to add some buttons and change the appearance of the
viewer at design time. How can I do that?

Thanks for any help.
