RB7.04: Text search in my Preview dialog.

edited December 2004 in General
Hi!

I'm try to test new in 7.04 RB feature "text search" in report:
I'm enable "Find Text settings" but I have own Preview form with TppViewer
component and own routine of Zoom/Pages/Print etc buttons on toolbar and
nothing to see on display.

How to add TextSearch panel in my own Preview form?

Thanks,
Nikolai

    There are two options:

    1. Create a custom TppPreview plug-in class and register it with
    ReportBuilder. TppPreview is used by the built-in preview dialog and the
    report designer. See RBuilder\Source\ppPreview.pas. The TppPreview class
    creates and manages the viewer, viewer toolbar, text search, report outline,
    etc.

    2. The other option is to add the TextSearch to a custom preview form. This
    is probably the approach you are using now.
