Hi.

It is possible to print a Report into a XML-File?

    Alex,

    Sorry, this is not a feature of ReportBuilder and I do not believe there are
    any third party tools that export to XML.

    If you need to export to XML so you can transfer reports over a server, you
    might want to check out ReportBuilder Server Edition. The Server Edition
    uses XML style reports to transfer from the server to client. Find out more
    information by going to http://www.digital-metaphors.com/server/ .

    You could also perhaps create a custom file device that creates an XML file
    based on a report. You would need to make a descendent of the TppFileDevice
    class located in the ppFilDev.pas file. The source code for the Text File
    Device is also in this file for an example of how a file device works.
