code into stream?

rbuser

If I store the design of a RB report to stream and then to a field in my
backend db, is it also storing the code for any of the events for the
report?

Thanks,

Keith

Hi Keith,

When you save your template to file or stream, the references to all the
events created in Delphi are kept, but the code itself is not. If you would
like to keep the event code of a report local to the template, take a look
at RAP. Report Application Pascal (RAP) is ReportBuidler's run-time Pascal
development environment. RAP enables the entire report definition (Data,
Calculations, and Layout) to be stored outside of the application
executable. Using RAP, you and your end-users can code calculations and
event-handlers without Delphi. RAP is also extensible - which means you can
easily register their own built-in functions and objects to meet specific
requirements. RAP is available with the Enterprise and Server editions of
ReportBuilder.
