How to modify filter "*.rtm" in ReportDesigner

rbuser

Hello

I have two applications, application A uses (due to certain reasons) an
older version of ReportBuilder, the other application B uses the newest
version of ReportBuilder enterprise. I want to avoid that the enduser
loads an rtm-file (in ReportDesigner) which is designed for application B
into application A and vice versa. My idea is to modify the extension of
the rtm-files for application B, for example to "rtz", so that they will
not appear if a user wants to load files in application A, in application
B the user should only see files with the modified extension. Is it
possible to modify the filter definition in ReportDesigner (load from file)?

Hi Emil,

The extension of a template file is set inside the TppReportTemplate.Create
routine inside the ppTmplat.pas file. This is not an editable property so
you would need to alter the ReportBuilder source to change the file
extension of a template file.
