Feel free to send the changes to support@digital-metaphors.com and we can
look into it. Have you tested your changes using the ADO and BDE DADE
plugins to make sure they also work with your changes?

You shouldn't try to change the source to try to add quotes around every
field. This may lead to more problems than it is worth.
If your users are going to be creating dataviews, then I would suggest
changing the actual fieldna… -
No, there isn't a Firebird specific DADE plugin. How are you accessing
Firebird? You should be able to use the current DADE plugins that you would
use for that connectivity.

Look in daSQL.pas and place a breakpoint in TdaSQL.ResolveCriteria to see if
RB is changing the date format. What Dade plugin are you using? You may have
to modify the code in this routine to support your date formatting. You can

You should enter it matching the date format that the machine regional

Changing our source would do the trick too. We usually don't suggest this as
it may cause other problems and we can't support the problems they cause.
However, if it works that is cool so it doesn't add the select field behind

The SQL generation is working as designed. The field in the ORDER BY usually
has to also be in the SELECT clause. Since it isn't supported on all
databases, we had to add to the select clause behind the scenes to avoid

Thankyou for the suggestions! We don't have any plans at this time to create
a dialog builder feature, but I'll add this to the "Requested Feature" list.

Could you send a demo project to us at support@digital-metaphors.com we have

reproduce the problem using that data.

What version of RB are you using for this report? In older versions of RB,
such as 5.5x, there was a problem silmilar to this. Can you test with RB
7.02 trial if you are using an older version to see if the problem goes
away?This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
This is a known issue and the workaround is to design the report at runtime
if you want to edit the SQL and be able to save the report template. We
don't have a patch for this yet, it only happens at Delphi design time.

then you can use a similar approach to the non-DADE autosearch demo which

Yes, check this on the autosearch field objects in the OnGetAutoSearchValues
event of the report: It should have a ShowAllValues property that you can
check, just like SearchExpression. For RAP, the ShowAllValues property is

Sounds like you have older dcus/pas files on your machine. Make sure that
you uninstal RB completely following the corrupt install cleanup
instructions in the TechTips newsgroup in the Installation thread.

You can create the RTTI for other component classes as shown in the RAP

to do include the necessary Teechart classes and properties. See Valdir

Take RAP out of the equation and code using Delphi events. Anything you can
do to make the problem simpler will help. Get it wokring with Delphi events,
and then try porting it to RAP code.

function that can extract the SQL object from the dataview of the report.
Then you can manipulate the OrderBy fields. Here is an example that swaps
