RB14.06: A wish for the future (EMail /PDF - options)

rbuser

Hello,

I just tried the Email-Settings of the new Report Builder.

I want to allow the user to create PDF-Files an to send E-Mails. So I set:

AllowPrintToFile := true;

PDFSettings.OpenPDFFile := true;

EMailSettings.Enabled := true;
EMailSettings.ReportFormat := 'PDF';
EMailSetting.PreviewInEMailClient := true;

Everything works fine.

The problem is, that the user don't want to open the PDF-file when he clicks
on the EMail-Button, but he wants to open it after export to pdf.

Please make an new option "EMailSettings.OpenPDFFile" in one of the next
versions of RB.

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

Hi Gerd,

Thanks for the suggestion. I will add it to our list of possible
enhancements for a later release.

Currently you could use the Report.BeforeEmail and Report.AfterEmail to
disable the PDFSettings.OpenPDFFile property when emailing a report.
