    You need to create a RAP pass-through function that can be registered with
    the Code Toolbox. Please see the following article...

    Article: Extending RAP
    ---------------------------------------------------

    There are two very simple and powerful techniques to extend the capabilities
    of RAP infinitely. These are summarized below and covered in more detail in
    the RAP.hlp online help. Demos and tutorials are installed to
    RBuilder\Demos\RAP. The tutorial text is located in RAP.hlp.


    1. RAP Pass-Through Functions

    These are functions that appear in the Language tab of RAP's Code Toolbox.
    These functions are written in Delphi and can be called from RAP. RAP's
    pass-through function architecture enable's developers to add new built-in
    functions to RAP's code toolbox.

    2. Extend RAP's RTTI

    RAP's Run-time Type information defines what classes and properties can be
    accessed via RAP. By default the published properties of any class that is
    registered with Delphi's RegisterClass procedure is recognized by RAP. In
    addition many of the public properties and methods of ReportBuilder classes
    are exposed.
