rbuilder.ini location

Hello,

A Client that uses reportbuilder can't change the layouts : "unable to write
to rbuilder.ini"
The c:\Windows\ directory is write protected, and he wants to keep it that
way.

Moving the rbuilder.ini to the application-directory does not help.
What is the correct way to get round this ?

kind regards,

Dirk Janssens.

    Hi Dirk,

    It is possible to store the initialization information in the registry if
    you do not have write access to certain directories. All you need to do is
    change the IniStorageType property of the TppDesigner object to Registry.
    This is a published property so it is available in the Delph Object
    Inspector.

    Dirk,

    We have had the same issue with some of our clients in the past. We solved
    this problem by having the client give full access to the rbuilder.ini file
    only, while still maintaining read-only access on the remainder of the
    Windows directory.
