File Not Found IEditCha.dcu

rbuser

I was looking back at prior posts about this problem and when I looked at
the post the subject line was totally different, and there was not help on
how to resolve this problem. I could not find the file with a file search.

How do I fix this.

Using report builder 6.03.

This error is because of using Teechart in your app.
You will hav to buid it as a runtime packages - or you will have to buy the
component from Steema .

I own Delphi 5 Enterprise so I have Tee Chart with my development
environment. I can put Tee charts on other forms and applications just
fine. It looks though that the charts I put in my Report Builder apps do
not work.

I did find an editcha.dcu, but not an "I"EditCha.dcu.

Your assistance is appreciated.

Never mind, I found the answer in the Tech Tips - in other words. Don't use
Charts with Report Builder, unless you know how to build run time packages
with them.
Which I don't.

If you look back at posts I have made, there is a way of including charts in
reports without having to get pro TChart. In a nutshell, I put images with
special user names (eg: Chart_One). When I load hte report (all reports are
saved to DB table or files) I seacrh it's components for any images with
special user names. I then get the chart image from the program (as a WMF)
and put it in the report image. I have posted code examples of this.

Ths allows me to only have to configure one chart, not 2 (i.e. one for my
program and one for the report).

Begining with RB 7, you should be able to design reports with teecharts at
delphi design time. Then you should be able to compile your app (with or
without using runtime packages) and print these reports. If you want to use
the teechart designer in the runtime report designer, then you'll have to
add the ppChrtUI unit in your uses clause. This step will require the
installation of a registered version of Teechart 5.02.
