How to preview from a stream

edited December 2004 in General
Hi,

RB9.01 now can print to a stream. That's a nice feature.

How can I preview *from* a stream w/o using temp file ?

    Hi Fabio,

    You can use the TppReport.Template.LoadFromStream procedure to load a
    streamed report template into the report object. This feature however has
    always been in ReportBuilder.

    With the new feature, you are able to export to stream using a file device.
    For instance, if you need to export to PDF but would not like to immediately
    save it to file, you can export it to the output stream first. For an
    example of this, check out the new demo 109 located in the
    \RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\... directory.
