    Hi Glenn,

    I'm a bit unclear about what you would like to happen. Are you looking to
    change all text in your report to scall caps? If so, try using a report
    object loop to do so. See the following article.

    ----------------------------------------------
    Tech Tip: Loop Thru All Objects in a Report
    ---------------------------------------------

    A ReportBuilder report is composed of a set
    of components. The basic structure is

    Reports.Bands[].Objects[]

    The bands and objects within the report can
    be accessed directly by object name or
    via the Bands and Objects array properties.

    Below is an example of using the Bands and
    Objects array properties to change the font for
    all objects on a report.


    uses
    ppClass;


    procedure AssignFontToReport(aFont: TFont; aReport: TppCustomReport);
    var
    liBand: Integer;
    liObject: Integer;
    lObject: TppComponent;

    begin

    for liBand := 0 to aReport.BandCount-1 do

    for liObject := 0 to aReport.Bands[liBand].ObjectCount-1 do
    begin
    lObject := aReport.Bands[liBand].Objects[liObject];

    if lObject.HasFont then
    lObject.Font := aFont;

    end;

    end;
