Self made autosearch screen?

rbuser

Hello,

Is it possible in the report builder itself (via one of the standaard
events, no external code) to "build" an autosearch screen?

We are using the Report builder integrated in our own program.

We would like to be able to pre-fill the "In List" with all possible
values (existing in the database) before letting the user chose.

Each customer has it's own data, and it can change with time, so we
can't write any fixed values in the search criteria.

If this is only possible through code, do you have an example of a
self made delphi form that can be "called" from the report builder
instead of the standaard autosearch form?

Thanks,

Chantal M.

You can define AutoSearch fields and then set the initial value via RAP code
or Delphi code.

Example of specifying a list of values for the InList operator...

myReport.AutoSearchFields[0].SearchExpression := 'value1, value2, value3';

The RB 11 Parameter enahancements also enable you to define a LookupList of
values.

Thanks,
We are still using RB 10.
Where can I find documentation or examples on how to do all of this
with RB11?
So that I can see if it's worth it for us to upgrade?
