Jeff,
Try replacing the print dialog and registering a custom dialog that has an
option to turn off and on Duplexing with a printer able to print two sided
pages. Copy the ppPDlg.pas file and rename the unit and class, then

You should be able to load the templates directly into a report object from
a BLOB field using a pipeline connected to the RBItems table. At runtime,

You will need to write your report with the ESC code included to a text
file, and then send the text file to the printer for any print commands to
work. See Demo 107 in the \RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\... folder for an

Try setting the Report.TextFileName or Report.ArchiveFileName before calling
Report.Print. The location in the 'where' option for printing to file will
then be changed to this directory.

Morten,
Make sure you have the latest printer driver for your operating system.
Also try installing the latest version of ReportBuilder 7.02.

Please see the TppBarcode help topic in the RBuilder.hlp file to view all
constraints and boundaries for each type of barcode supported by
ReportBuilder. This should help you design the size you need.

You will need to write a passthru function to access the Report.Engine.Page
component in RAP. Below is a link to an example of a RAP passthru function

Here is another example for you to look at. This example sets up the

The close button is only meant to be used with the print preview dialog. It

Here is a link for an updated version of the example I gave you before.
This example enables the close button in the previewer as well as the

Pat,
You will need to create a descendent of the TppPreview class and override
the PrintStateChangeEvent. Then you can adjust that method to enable the
cancel/close button as you need it. You will need to set the caption of th…Pat,
When is the cancel button disabled? Please give me the steps to take which
would allow me to see the error. By default the cancel button is disabled
when there is nothing to cancel.

Please do not cross post. See the Subreports NG.

Brett,
Make sure the printer driver on the other machine is updated. ReportBuilder
(including the previewer) relies on the printer driver to paginate reports.
If you are using a different printer with that machine, make sure th…Nicolas,
Below is a link to an example of how to create a Report Explorer as an MDI
child. This should help you solve any error you are getting.
It is possible to replace the Report Wizard with your own by creating a
descendent to the TppReportWizard class in the ppRptWiz.pas file. Below is
an example of replacing the existing Report Wizard with a custom one.

1. The source code for RAP and Server is not included with ReportBuilder.
2. One solution is to include a script at the beginning of your
InstallShield program to delete any existing .bpl files before installationAlexandre,
To view a list of available pipelines, all pipelines in your application
must reside on the main form or datamodule. Also, be sure that all
pipelines are visible and connected properly to their reports.

There are a couple ways to concatinate multiple fields. The easiest way is
probably to create a TppVariable and add the fields to it directly from the
datapipeline. Something like this...

Create a group on a static invisible label somewhere in your report and

possible to implement your own SuppressRepeatedValues property. Below is a

Make sure the datafields are in the region. You can check this by dragging
the region across the report and checking if the datafields move as well.
Once they are in the region, setting its visibility to false should do …Yep, that's it.

Reid,
Yes, however, if you still have components in a report during Delphi
design-time, they will get compiled with your .exe unless you delete them or
load a new report into the designer. Be sure to delete your components
Reid,
The Report Templates are not comiled in the .exe. There are either file
based or data based. Keep in mind there is a report component on the form
and that report and its embedded template gets comiled into the .exe. Onc…
