Archive Example

rbuser

Is there an example that prints to an Archive then stores in a database
for later printing? And possibly one that read archive from a database
and prints. I'm hoping to do something like print now or print later
then just print them all at once.

Thanks! Do you have one that compiles under Delphi 7. I thought I
reworked it enough to run but the archives all preview empty.

NEver mind I found it, the included pparchiv.pas was overriding the one
in my lib

Ok now that I have the archive example running. It isn't working. All
the archives it displays from the DB are just blank print previews? Did
i do something wrong or does the demo not work when run under Delphi 7?
RB7.03

Hi Chris,

Sorry about that. Try re-downloading the example. I tested it with Delphi
7 and RB 7.03.

Thanks that works. I did have to change the following line to point to
Delphi7 rather then Delphi6 if you want to change your master copy for
Delphi 7.

FLocalDirectory := 'C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\RBuilder\Demos\1.
Reports\Archives\';

Hi Chris,

Oops, sorry, sometimes I forget I have 3 versions of Delphi installed on my
tech support machine .
