Autosearch Previrew Button

rbuser

I'd like the Autosearch preview button to appear in the viewer even tho I'm
programmatically filling the Autosearch fields in the
OnReceiveAutoSearchFields event and disabling "ShowAutoSearchDialog". If I
leave it enabled I get both the report displayed and the autosearch panel on
top of it.

Any Ideas?

Thanks! - Jon Gray

RB 7.02 Server based with trsClientReport.

For RB 7.02, the ClientReport has a new GetAutoSearchParameters method that
can be used to accomplish this....

-----------------------------------------------------------
Tech Tip: ClientReport - Default AutoSearch Expression
-----------------------------------------------------------

The ClientReport.GetAutoSearchParameters method can be used to retrieve

Report.AutoSearchFields[] fields from the report server. You can then assign
the

AutoSearchField.SearchExpression value and call the print method.


As an example, add the following code to the
RBServer\Demos\Clients\ClientReport example.



{----------------------------------------------------------}

procedure TfrmClientReport.btnPrintClick(Sender: TObject);
begin

{set the volume and report name}
rsClientReport1.VolumeName := 'Report Files';
rsClientReport1.ReportName := 'Customers\Orders\Order List';

{retrieve the autosearch paramters from the server and set the default
search expression}
if rsClientReport1.GetAutoSearchParameters then
rsClientReport1.AutoSearchFields[0].SearchExpression := 'S';

rsClientReport1.Print;

end;
