Designer menu

edited March 2004 in General
Hello,

I'm using the database to store templates.

Some questions:

1) The file options "Save as" and "Save as" lead to a "Save dialog" for
saving the templatee on disk. I want "Save" to save the file in the
database and "Save as" removed from the menu. Can this be done?

2).If the user closes the designer , how can i check if the report is
changed?

3) The report is hooked up to a pipeline for an Order. It has also a pipline
connection for saving/reading the template
from the db table. The designer is showing that pipeline to! I don't want
that to happen.

    Hi Eric,

    1. You can access the main menu of the designer by using the Designer.Menu
    property.

    2. By default, when you create a report in the explorer, the
    Report.SaveAsTemplate property is set to True. You need to set this
    property to True if you would like ReportBuilder to check for changes and
    then prompt the user to save if there are.

    3. Try setting the visibility of the dbTable pipeline to False.
