printing multiple copies.

rbuser

RB 7.03 Delphi 5

Hi,
Sometimes when printing multiple copies, some components disappear
between the different copies. For example copy 1 has all of the data
and literals, copy 2 might be missing some. Copy 3 and 4 are ok but 5
is missing some again.

Anyway to make the components draw on the first copy and stay like they
are for the number of copies? I have gotten around it by converting it
to adobe, but my users don't like this solution.

Is this a timing issue on my machine, or printer driver?

Thanks

Hi Louis,

We have not had any issues like this one with RB 7.03. As a test, try
commenting out all your event handler code and see if that helps. If so,
some of that code may be confusing the report engine. Another thing you can
try is to let the printer handle the copies by setting the
Report.PrinterSettings.DelegateCopies to True. If the problem still
persists after all these changes, please send a small example to
support@digital-metaphors.com demonstrating the issue and I'll have a look
at it for you.

I couldn't compile with the PrinterSettings.DelegateCopies. It was
not found. I have 7.03. Maybe there is a later version with this in it
that I don't have?

Sorry, my mistake... There is no PrinterSettings object. Try
Report.PrinterSetup.DelegateCopies... that should compile a little better
.
