  • Hi Jim,

    Which version of ReportBuilder/TeeChart are you trying to use? I do not
    believe RB 7.04 was compatable with TeeChart 7.04. The latest version of RB
    (9.03) is now compatable with TeeChart 7.05 (available from
  • Hi Jim,

    Which version of TeeChart are you using? Be sure you installed Teechart
    before you installed ReportBuilder. If not, you may want to try
    re-installing RB. Take a look at the RBuilder.hlp in the ReportBuilder

  • Hi Frank,

    For future reference, we prefer you use your real name as your user name in
    these newsgroups.

    I was able to recreate this issue and it seems that it only occurs with
    TeeChart 4.04. I will try to get into…
  • Hi Frank,

    Sorry, I didn't realize you were using Delphi 2005. It seems the
    TeePageNumTool file was left out for that version. Which version of Delphi
    2005/ReportBuilder/TeeChart are you using? In my testing with Delphi 2005…
  • Hi,

    The TeeChart component in ReportBuilder is simply a wrapper around the
    TCustomChart component developed by Steema. In order to enable specific
    features dealing with these components you will need to include the proper
  • Hi John,

    Two options...

    1. If you are keeping the labels on one page only, you can set the
    DetailBand.PrintCount property to the number of labels you need. (Note: you
    will also need to set Report.AutoStop to Fals…
  • Hi Mark,

    A Pass-Thru function in RAP is fairly simple to create. There is a full
    example of creating one inside the ReportBuilder Developer's Guide located
    in your \RBuilder\Developers Guide\... directory.

    The basi…

    Take a look at the reply Nard gave you in the RAP newsgroup. My answer to
    your question below would be very similar :)…            </div>
            <div class= in TIFF Files Comment by nicocizik October 2005
  • Hi Mark,

    In order to allow TIFF images to show up in your reports, you will need to
    register the TTIFFImage class in the GraphiEX library with ReportBuilder
    using a format similar to the ppGIF unit already included in RB. Som…
  • Hi Mark,

    You are going to need to create a TIFF unit that registers the TIFFImage
    component with ReportBuilder. The article I posted in my last message gives
    an example of how this is done for GIF images. You will need to do…
  • Hi Mark,

    I believe GraphicEx supports certain types of TIFF images.

  • Hi Nicola,

    If you look at the example, you will see that it descends from the
    TppAutoSearchDialog class. Taking a look at this class (ppASDlg.pas),
    inside the Init routine, you will see how and where the tabs are created.
  • Hi Nicola,

    Sorry, I should have explained a little more. In order to change the way
    the default autosearch dialog behaves (i.e. using tabs) you will need to
    create and register a custom autosearch dialog such as the one used …
  • Hi Nicola,

    Take a look at the autosearch demos located in the \RBuilder\Demos\3.
    AutoSearch\... directory. Specifically the Custom AutoSearch Dialog
    example. This shows how to add numerous autosearch fields to a single form.…
  • Hi Mark,

    The DataView class is an abstract ancestor to the QueryDataViews you see in
    the data workspace (i.e. DADE). The dataview class gives you access to the
    SQL that will be executed in your database. Creating and registe…
  • Hi Mark,

    1. Views

    We have modified some of the DADE plug-ins to include Views. If the DADE
    plug-in that you are using does include views in the list of available table
    names, then modify the GetTableNames method of …
  • Hi Frank,

    This is something that will have to be done to the TeeChart object before
    you display it as an image. You could either remove some of the labels as
    you mentioned below or simply make the chart larger on the form and…
  • Hi Alex,

    If you are exporting to a delimited text file you need to define which text
    objects that you would like exported by either using the Print To File Setup
    dialog (available from the File menu of the designer), or settin…

    Unfortunately there is no built in way to move all components that do not
    fit into alloted paper space. There are two options...

  • Hi Rajac,

    I believe you are refering to the FAQ for ReportBuilder Server Edition. If
    this is a server question, it is best to post it in the Server newsgroup for
    a quicker response. ReportBuilder Server does allow the use of…
  • Hi Carl,

    Are you using a registered version of ReportBuilder or an application with
    ReportBuilder built in? I'm a bit confused about what exactly you would
    like to happen. Datasets can dynamically be created in Delphi or in …
  • Hi Alex,

    There is a third party component available from our web site named
    RotatedText that allows you to rotate a label. You can download it from the
    following web page. Rotated text is natively supported in RB 9.x.

    Which version of TeeChart are you using? This is not a known issue at

  • Hi Jay,

    You control the data access for a DBChart by navigating to the Series | Data
    Source tab in the chart editor. Then select DataPipeline from the drop down
    box at the top.

  • Hi Luca,

    You can adjust the vertical position of the summary band using the
    PrintPosition property. This property is calculated in Report Units so if
    you are measuring your report in inches and using a 8.5 x 11 inch piece of …
  • Hi Luca,

    Instead of using the Footer band to print a message on the last page, try
    using the Summary band. This band by definition will only print on the last
    page of the report.

  • Hi Jeff,

    I would suggest using an event such as the DetailBand.BeforePrint to check
    if a given record is empty. Then you could toggle the visibility of two
    DBText components inside the detail band based on this information. …
