Error while loading RAF files

edited December 2005 in General
Hello,

in our company we archive delivery notes to RAF files. At the moment we are
still working on RB version 5.5

Normally we do not have problems with RAF files, but for some months in
2004-2005 the RAF viewer complains about TppPage.Calculation: property does
not exists when we load it to screen. I've cheched the RAF files with a hex
editor, and the problem reports indeed have a reference to a calculation
property, while all the other reports do not. I suspect that for some time
a developer used an incorrect version of RB which got in production, but now
I want to get this solved. Is the calculation property something from a
newer version than 5.5? If possible we would like to retain our current
version, is there a way to ignore the calculation property error?

Is there also a way to determine the RB version which was used to create the
RAF file?

Thanks a lot,

Jan Jacobs

    Open RBuilde\Source\ppDevice.pas and check the class declaration for
    TppPage.

    In RB 9.03 the Page.Calculation property is published. Perhaps in some prior
    version it was not.
