Only show Report Explorer and not main form

rbuser

I followed this tip


And The main form doesn't show but I have two entries in the task bar.
One Says EndUser the other is my caption for Report Explorer. How do i
get rid of the EndUser entry in the task bar?

Hi Chris,

The EndUser entery is required to be there as it is the main application.
We made the decision to add another task bar entery for the report explorer
because customers were finding it difficult to located the explorer window
when it was minimized to the bottom left corner of the screen (sometimes
behind other windows. If you would like to convert back to the older way of
handling the explorer window, follow these steps.

To revert back to the way RB 6 worked you will need to change two lines of
code in the ReportBuilder Source...

- In the ppDsIntf.pas, comment out the following line of code from the
TppComponentDesigner.CreateParams method.

Params.ExStyle := Params.ExStyle or WS_EX_APPWINDOW; {Comment out this
line}

- Comment out the same line of code from the ppExpFrm.pas file inside the
TppReportExplorerForm.CreateParams method.
