Save Dialog When Report is Changed

rbuser

I am using RBuilder with load from and save to database. Also using
ppDictionary, etc in MS SQL application. Everything is working fine with
one exception. When I alter a report and then exit, RBuilder does not
prompt to save the report. It just closes.

Is there a property I can set to cause the designer to prompt to save if
there has been any change in the report?

Or

If not, I assume I have to design my own save interface. What property can
I test to see if the user altered the report and therefore prompt to save?
Any examples of doing this?

Thanks,

I found the Report.Template.Modified property which is very helpful. Any
other suggestions or insight would be helpful. If the modified property is
true, why does the designer not prompt to save automatically?

Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,

When not using the ReportExplorer, the Report Designer will not prompt to
save automatically if the report has been modified. You are on the right
track to solve this problem by using the Report.Template.Modified property
to find out if the report has been changes and then when the user closes the
designer, create a dialog to ask them if they would like to save their
changes and if so, save the template to your database BLOB field.
