Hi Philip,
I'm not sure the exact order you are performing these tasks, but you could
place the image in the PageStyle band of the report, then based on whether
the user prints to the printer or not, simply toggle the visibili… -

You can use the Designer.OnCreateComponent event to initialize certain
components when they are added to a report...

Hi André,
Does this occur with every report you try to export to PDF? Are you able to
trace into the RB source when the AV occurs?

Hi Mark,
This is not currently a feature of the DataTree Window.
The DataTree uses the TppLayoutFactory (ppRptWiz.pas) class to determine
which component is created for a given field. This class is completely
repla… -
Hi Jeroen,
There is no built-in way to limit the height of a stretching memo. One
option would be to take manual control over the memo height. If you know
the amount of space the subreport needs, you could let the memo stret… -

Hi Petter,
This should be possible. It is possible to assign your own stream for the
file device to export to by manually setting the Device.OutputStream
property. If you were to implement the OnStartJob event of a file devi… -
Hi Bas,
Note that Child style subreports do not support page headers or footers. If
you are using a Child subreport, you will need to use the Title/Summary
bands or group headers/footers. Section style subreports do support … -
Hi Mike,
Currently the built-in PDF export does not support PDF encryption. As Paul
mentioned, there are other third party devices that do provide this feature.
This is something that we are strongly considering adding to a l… -
Sorry, Design/Formatting is the section of the Wiki I meant to refer to.
These are more advanced examples. Basic examples can be found in the main
reports demo as I mentioned earlier.
I would suggest first creating a simple r… -
Hi Bas,
Documentation for columns can be found under the TppCustomReport.Columns
topic in the ReportBuilder help. There are also numerous columnar report
examples located in the main reports demo in the \Demos\1. Reports\... … -
Hi Lithian,
I suggest using the TCanvas.TextWidth routine to determine the width of a
text object. If you just need an approximate value, you can use the Canvas
property of a TBitmap. Once you assign the proper font, the val… -
Hi Jeff,
The TextFileDevice only supports text objects such as TppLabels, TppMemos,
and TppDBTexts. If you would like to add the text from a checkbox to the
delimited text file, it would be possible to create an caption-less … -
Hi Andre,
I'm sorry but I do not fully understand what you are trying to accomplish.
If you are using a dynamic height detail band, you can place a static object
such as a TppShape inside it to prevent the band from shrinking … -
Hi Scott,
There is now a patch that addresses this issue for RB 11.06. Email
support@digital-metaphors.com if you would like the patch.

in System Variable and Parameters Comment by nicocizik November 2009 -
Hi Chris,
This is not a known issue. Do you only receive the error when using the
InfoPower control? Have you tried tracing into the RB source to track down
the issue? ReportBuilder 7.03 is a fairly old version of the produ… -
Hi Scott,
Thanks for the suggestion. I will add this to the list of possible
enhancements for a later release. Just to be clear, would you like to just
see these notes in the designer? Perhaps something similar to a "commen… -
Hi Norbert,
I believe the easiest way to accomplish this would be to take control of the
visibility of the DBText yourself. Inside the Band.BeforePrint event you
could keep track of the date value as well as any other values … -
Hi Joel,
This may be the case. If you create a new report from scratch (similar to
the report in question) do you still get the same behavior? You might also
try commenting out all event code related to this report and see i… -
Hi Joel,
Is your report connected to a dataset with no data returned? If so, you
need to be sure you have the NoDataBehaviors property set to ndBlankReport
rather than ndBlankPage in order to see other components.

Hi Casey,
Try accessing the TppViewer.CalculatedZoom property rather than the
ZoomPercentage if you would like to see the current zoom value.

in AV when searching for a text in a richtext Comment by nicocizik November 2009 -
Hi Mark,
Are you still using the embedded preview form? If so, you may need to take
control over the TextSearchButton yourself when a new template is loaded.

Hi Scott,
The OnCalc event of a TppVariable is the only event guaranteed to fire once
per traversal. Though in most cases, the BeforeGenerate event does fire
only once per band, there is no logic in place to ensure that. In … -
Thanks Rod,
For versions of ReportBuilder 9 or later it is necessary to set a variable
to a numeric type if making numeric calculations. This was to fix string
building cases with the the TppVariable component.

Hi Bruce,
As I mentioned before, there should be no need to place the TppVariable in
the detail band. Placing it inside the GroupFooter with its Timing set to
calculate on Traversal will fire the OnCalc event for each record … -
Hi Bruce,
How are you hiding the detail band? Are you able to trace into the OnCalc
event and see where the values are coming from? If you are displaying the
totals in the group footer, you should only need to place the TppV… -
Hi Bruce,
Rather than using the DetailBand.BeforeGenerate event, you are going to want
to use the OnCalc event of a TppVariable to make any calculations. This is
the only event that is guaranteed to fire only once per travers… -
Hi Hugo,
Thanks for considering ReportBuilder!
If you would like to use the RAP programming language (calc tab) with
ReportBuilder, you will need to download the Enterprise Edition of the
product.
