Output to an Archive file

rbuser

I have downloaded the demo version of Report Builder version 6. Using
this component I'm able to print and Preview the report that I have created,
but I'm not able to save it to an Archive file (.RAF). I specified the file
name on my Desktop and set the ALLOWPRINTTOARCHIVE, SHOWPRINTDIALOG option
to TRUE. But still its not printing the output to Archive file. I have set
the DeviceType to ArchiveFile.

Do I need to do any morw settings to print the Archive file.

Thanks

It sounds like your are loading the report definition from file or database.
After loading, the value of these properties is set to what has been saved.
Try the following:

uses
ppTypes;

ppReport1.Template.LoadFromFile;
ppReport1.AllowPrintToArchive := True;
ppReport1.ArchiveFileName := 'C:\test.raf';'
ppReport1.ArchiveType := dtArchive;
ppReport1.ShowPrintDialog := True;

ppReport1.Print;
