Emailing and saving a PDF
I need to email a report as a PDF and also save a copy of the PDF.
I have:
PPReport3.DeviceType := 'pdffile';
ppReport3.Print;
reportfilename := ppDBText161.Text +'.pdf';
JvMail1.Body := wwDBRichEdit1.Lines;
JvMail1.Attachment.Clear;
JvMail1.Attachment.Add(reportfilename);
JvMail1.SendMail(true);
I need to suppress the dialogue box, output the pdf into the application
directory then open the mail client with the PDF attached.
I am getting error 'cannot create file'
What am I doing wrong here please?

Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? The latest version contains
built-in PDF and Email support so there is no need to use third party tools
and there is a feature to specifically send a PDF and save to file
simultaneously.
I am unaware of the "reportfilename" property however it seems this should
be set before the call to Report.Print.
