TppVariable Value not showing up

rbuser

Hello !

I have a TppVariable object that is not showing the value at run time,
however if I place a second variable object beside the first one the value
does show up in the second variable im confused suggestions please, here is
the code ( value := plQryBooks['City']+ ', ' +plQryBooks['State']+ ' '
+plQryBooks['Zip']; ) this is placed in the OnCalc event of the variable
object this works fine in all of my other Reports


Thanks
Richard

Hi Richard,

Be sure that the variable's Visible property is set to True. Does the
second variable show up with the same code in its OnCalc? Perhaps try
deleting the first variable and re-adding it.

Yes Nico, I tried both of the suggestions, even tried to delete both
variables and enter a new one it still did not show thats a strange problem
because the other variables work in other reports I created, unless having
the variable on the Main report of a report that has a subreport has
something to do with it I just started using Subreports diden't need them
before for the reports I use, maybe there is something I'm doing wrong

Hi Richard,

Sorry for the delay.

Take a look at the subreport demos located in the \RBuilder\Demos\1.
Reports\... directory for some good examples of what they are capable of.
Also, follow the link below for an example of using variables with
subreports. Perhaps these will give you as idea why your report is not
working correctly. If you still have problems, please send a small example
that demonstrates the issue in .zip format to support@digital-metaphors.com
and I'll take a look at it for you.
