How can I dynamically create a report group at run-time?


example code:
-------------

uses
ppClass, ppGroup, ppClasUt;


function AddGroupToReport(aBreakName: String; aDataPipeline:
TppDataPipeline; aReport: TppCustomReport);
var
lGroup: TppGroup;
lGroupBand: TppGroupBand;

begin


{add group to report}
lGroup := TppGroup(ppComponentCreate(aReport, TppGroup));

lGroup.Report := aReport;

lGroup.BreakName := aBreakName;
lGroup.DataPipeline := aDataPipeline;

{add group header and footer bands }
lGroupBand := TppGroupBand(ppComponentCreate(aReport,
TppGroupHeaderBand));
lGroupBand.Group := lGroup;

lGroupBand := TppGroupBand(ppComponentCreate(aReport,
TppGroupFooterBand));
lGroupBand.Group := lGroup;


end; {procedure, AddGroupToReport}
