Using Report Wizard Programmatically

edited June 2002 in General
Hi,
Is there anyway that I can use the Report Wizard that's available from the
File/New menu programmatically?

Our users have widely different reporting requirements that we cannot
develop each possible report, so we provide them a tool to select what kind
of data appears on the report then we create a standard report layout for
them, which is of course not as neat looking as the ones produced by your
RepWiz.

Calling this RepWiz by itself would be great, and even better if I can
specify a certain style for my reports (like the standard ones in RepWiz;
Corporate, Compact, etc..) and that template defines how new layouts should
look like (basically allowing me to put customer company info at the top of
reports and specify how page numbers and titles should look like).

Thanks

    Take a look at the NewReportFromWiz method in the ppDsgner unit which sets
    up the report wizard and executes it. You can certainly create a descendant
    of the report wizard to offer your users more options when creating their
    report such as predefined styles and so fourth.
