re-ordering groups

rbuser

I want to swap two group's group/footer break from inner to outer and
vice-versa.
In the ReportBuilder Designer Groups Dialog, I can simply re-order the
groups by drag & drop, which accomplishes exactly what I want.
How would this be done in code during program execution?

TIA,

Hi Monte,

Sorry, I just did a full refresh of the newsgroup and finally saw your
original message. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. You're going
to want to check out the Report.Groups[] property. Reordering the group
objects in this TList will give you the effect you want. See the
TList.Exchange() and TList.Move() methods in the Delphi help for more
information on how to move objects around in a list.

Can you give me an example please?

I tried this:

TList(MyReport.Groups).Exchange(0,1)

but it wants an index for the groups property.

If "Groups" is a TList, shouldn't that work?

Thanks,

Monte

Hi Monte,

Sorry, I forgot that there is a built-in function to perform this
function...

Report.MoveGroup(aCurrentPos, aNewPos: Integer);
