Displaying RTM in ppViewer (?)

rbuser

We have a listbox, which displays RTM file names. When the user dbl-clks a
filename in the listbox, we want to display the report in a ppViewer
component located on the same form.

Has anyone done this?

Does anyone have example source that demonstrates how to load/display the
RTM file in the ppViewer?

Thanks, Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Take a look at the TppTemplate help topic in the RBuilder help.

You are going to want to load the template using the LoadFromFile or
LoadFromDatabase routine, then call PrintToDevices on the report to show it
in the viewer.

Report.Template.FileName := 'myFile.rtm';
Report.Template.LoadFromFile;
Report.PrintToDevices;
