Expand All Subreports From Print Preview

edited July 2006 in Subreports
Hi,

Is it possible to expand all sub-reports from the preview through an OnClick
event? I had hoped that using SubReport1.ExpandAll := True in the
OnDrawCommandClick event would do the job, but this was not successful.
This needs to be strictly a RAP implementation so Report.ExpandDrillDowns is
not an option.

    Hi Bob,

    The ExpandDrillDowns routine is not natively available in RAP.

    Article: Extending RAP
    ---------------------------------------------------

    There are two very simple and powerful techniques to extend the capabilities
    of RAP infinitely. These are summarized below and covered in more detail in
    the RAP.hlp online help. Demos and tutorials are installed to
    RBuilder\Demos\RAP. The tutorial text is located in RAP.hlp.


    1. RAP Pass-Through Functions

    These are functions that appear in the Language tab of RAP's Code Toolbox.
    These functions are written in Delphi and can be called from RAP. RAP's
    pass-through function architecture enable's developers to add new built-in
    functions to RAP's code toolbox.

    2. Extend RAP's RTTI

    RAP's Run-time Type information defines what classes and properties can be
    accessed via RAP. By default the published properties of any class that is
    registered with Delphi's RegisterClass procedure is recognized by RAP. In
    addition many of the public properties and methods of ReportBuilder classes
    are exposed.
