Creating a report at runtime and then assigning it another report that is on the form at design time

rbuser

I have a TppReport on a form, but I want to create a TppReport at runtime
and then assign it everything that is in the first report that I created at
design time. How do i do this?

Thanks,

Rick,

You will need to use the Report.Template property to access the template of
the report you create at run-time and then load that template into the other
report already on the form. Here is an example of what you might do:

var
lMemoryStream: TMemoryStream;
begin

lMemoryStream := TMemoryStream.Create;

try
myDynamicReport.Template.SaveToStream(lMemoryStream);

myReport.Template.LoadFromStream(lMemoryStream);

myReport.Print;

finally
lMemoryStream.Free;
end;

end;

Thanks Nico, that is exactly what I was looking for
