Range doesnt work

rbuser

?I have a small test project, using RB Enterprise V7.03 and Advantage
database. One datasource, one grid, two report components, one pipeline
component which both reports access.

I want to point to a record in the grid and see a report for that single
record. I have set the RangeBegin and RangeEnd properties to
rbCurrentRecord and reCurrentRecord, but this doesnt seem to work as the
very simple report shows a completely different arbitrary record.

Please advise.

Hi Sairheid,

Take a look at demo 115 (dm0115.pas) located in the \RBuilder\Demos\1.
Reports\... directory. Does this example work correctly for you? If so,
try to use the same settings to get your application working.

The given example works of course, but Ive checked every property of the
pipeline and the report against my own and ensured they are identical,
but still the report defaults to showing a single record somewhere in the
middle of the table. I have ensured there are no filters set and no
autosearch settings...in fact its a very simple report with no extra
settings at all but still it insists on showing an arbitrary record from
the middle of the dataset!!

Seems to have been a database problem. I expanded the pipelines 'Dataset'
property and changed the 'DatabaseName' property to the database alias
name that the Advantage ADS.INI configuration file requires. That was
enough, the pipeline now sees the record pointer and the record selection
works as it should.

Thanks for your suggestion, it was enough to push me in the right
direction.

A footnote to this problem...the ppReport component keeps dropping its
DatabaseName property, and then the problem reoccurs. I will start a new
thread on this. At the moment this problem renders RB unuseable.
