OnNoData event...

rbuser

Hi everyone...

I just updated from RB 5.56 to 6.0 for Delphi 4 and now I have a serious
problem regarding the OnNoData event. I haven't had the time yet to
investigate what exactly happens, but the outcome is, that if the report has
data, it traverses through it (printing to screen and jumping to last page)
and then replaces everything with the "No Data" Label on the page. If there
is actually no data, RB runs in circles and gets stuck on page 0 (it never
increases the page count). Help?!?

We've just fixed NoDataBehaviors yesterday. For other fixes we've had in the
past few days, we've uploaded a new version of RB6. Download RB6 for D4
again. The link and password should be the same as before.

Hi Jim...

I just finished downloading RB again and 50% is resolved. That means,
reports are now created correctly when data is present (no longer showing
the no data message), but it is still running in circles when no data is
present.

It appears that the GenerateComplete or StopPrinting variable in
TppEngine.Generate is never set when there is no data. I use a custom
dataset, so it might behave differently from the "normal" ones. Is there
anything that changed between 5.56 and 6.0 regarding how it detects
that there is no data?

Cheers, Marco...

Somehow this fix didn't get built into the release. We'll build a new
version and notify everyone to download the latest when it is ready.

I've sent you the correct engine pas file via email. You'll need to include
this in your project instead of using the ppEngine.dcu that is located in
../RBuilder/Lib/
