Access Violation
Has any one seen the following bug? If so is there a fix for it?
An Access violation is caused when right clicking on the bottom band of a
Group Header or Group Footer band.
I believe this is a result of the program being confused as to which pop up
menu to display.
The Group Header band has a different pop up menu as the Details band and
the Group Footer band has a different pop up menu as the Footer band. The
bands appear in the following order.
Group Header
Details
Group Footer
Footer
To reproduce
1. From the Design tab add a group to the Report.
2. Right click directly underneath either of the two group bands. The mouse
should be pointing at the bottom line of the group bands.
3. If you hit the right spot the AV will occur. If you hit the wrong spot a
dialog box will appear. This may take a couple of attempts to hit the right
spot.
Thanks!

Thanks for reporting this issue. I can recreate the AV using the latest
release, RB 7.03. I have created a patch for RB 7.03 that fixes this issue.
Registered users of RB 7.03 interested in receiving the patch can e-mail
support@digital-metaphors.com and request it.
