There's no way to know which template you want to load, if there are two
reports with the same name in the database. The datapipeline will locate
the first record which it finds a match for the name of the report template.
The template loading architecture is built to handle a list of templates.
The report explorer is a tree structure for templates. You can't use a list
type search on a tree structure. You'll need to get the folder id of the
template that you are looking to load. Then perform you own loading function
to get the template out of the database and into a report. You can look in
the report explorer source in ..\RBuilder\Source\ppRptExp.pas and the
template ppTmplat.pas to see how we load the templates.
