Out of Memory Error
I have a Delphi 6 app that uses ReportBuilder 7.03. Several of my users have
started receiving an Out Of Memory error when they attempt to print one of
my reports. It seems that no other applications cause the problem, and even
then it is only this one particular report. This report consist of around 7
subreports. The most pages it ever produces for a report is 50. It started
as a far and few between problem that I chalked up to the computer having
the problem. It is now occuring on multiple machines at different sites.
Even a cold reboot fails to solve the problem. I am not convinced that this
is a report problem, but thought I'd throw it out here and see if anyone had
any ideas of where/how I might track down this problem.
Thanks

This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. Are you loading numerous
large images with the report on each page? Is the Report.CachePages
property set to false? If possible, please send a copy of the report you
are having problems with to support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll test it
on my machine.

have to run some further tests to see if what I think is happening is really
the case. In the instance where I received the error, the report was 39
pages long. When I hit print, it prints the first 15 pages then gets the
error. The 15 pages print as expected, page 16 prints, but only partially.
Without closing the report preview, I printed pages 17-39, prints fine.
Then, again without closing, attempted to print just page 16, received
memory error and a partial page printed.
As it turns out, there is one TppImage on this page. I will continue to test
to see if the image is always present when there is an error.

included images, using v7.03 and D6. He reverted to v7.02 and the problem
went away, I reverted to v7.02 and my problem went away as well.

Interesting. Yes, other than the upgrade, I have not made any other changes
to the report and it had been working fine prior to the upgrade. At the same
time, I can't make an absolute connection to the problem starting at the
same time I applied the upgrade. For now I will check the DirectDraw setting
as suggested.

There is a patch available for RB 7.03 that may help with this problem.
Please send an email requesting the patch to support@digital-metaphors.com
and we'll get it right out to you.
