problem after upgrading to RB 9.02

edited June 2005 in General
Just rebuilt a clean machine (XP, SP2) with Delphi 6 Enterprise (fully
service-packed), TeeChart Pro 7.04 and RB Enterprise 9.02. My previous
version of RB was 7.03 and I just upgraded to Enterprise Server, so I
thought a clean start was best way to ensure all went well.

Went to rebuild a project containing several TppReports. THe software built
OK, but on running gave an Exception on each form which contains a ppReport.
On a closer look, all the Pipeline components seem to have disappeared from
the entire project!!

Is this a bug or a feature, or have I done something wrong? I noticed I had
to delete the DPP files on another project which uses TeeChart Pro 7.04 to
compile correctly, and I did the same with this project.

    Actually, two of the reports in question don't need a datapipeline. I
    simple manually update the fields for ease of printing. Yet, as soon as the
    "Application.CreateForm(Tf_best_perform, f_best_perform)" statement starts
    to excute, I get the "Exception EAccessViolation in ...". I've tried
    re-creating the Reports, by saving the report, deleting the component,
    re-adding the component and loading the report, to no avail.

    Is RB9.02 DEhlpi 6 compatible?

    Hi Barry,

    Sorry, I'm a bit confused about the issue. Did any DataPipelines dissapear
    from your application when you upgraded to RB 9.02? How does this specific
    application work? (i.e. are you loading templates from a database?). Are
    you able to trace into the RB code or your code when the exception occures?
    If so, where is the exception occuring?

    Sorry- I got it to work the third time! I again deleted the TppReports
    after saving them, this time I also deleted the RB units from the PAS header
    then , re-added the reports and loaded them, built the application, then it
    seemed to be OK.

    It seemed to be very much like a general problem - like in the old version,
    when you had a report but no printer installed on the PC - then you got an
    exception just by running the program. Probably something out of sync-
    though it has happened on other projects since.
