TppDetailBand.Height?
Hi,
If TppDetailBand.PrintHeight is set to phDynamic and the band contains a
component of variable size (e.g. a TppMemo), is it possible to tell how tall
the band will be before printing it? If I look at the Height property, that
gives me the height set at design time, not the height after the memo has
been loaded with several lines of text.
The reason I'm asking is that I've got a subreport with a single detail
band, which needs to print on a new page if there isn't enough space on the
existing page.
I'm using Delphi 3 and RB 4.23.
TIA
John

You will need to check out
Open RBuilder\Source\ppCtrls.pas and search for the
TppCustomMemo.CalcSpaceUsed method.
You will need to use similar logic to calculate the height required for the
memo.
