Report Builder & Flash Filer 2

rbuser

I am reposting this with a different subject because my last response was
never answered.

I previously asked:

Then I was asked if the end user demo works for me. My answer is no. The
demo EndUser.dpr gives me exactly the same error message. What am I
doing wrong? When you say, "make sure the datasettings are correct in the
DADE workspace," what does that mean? I'm new to this.

Sorry, I missed your post. I'll install FF2 today and run our demo. Thanks
for your patience.

I downloaded and installed the latest FF2 version 2.0601. It runs without
any problem in D6 and RB 6.03.

In your client application, there can only be one TffDatabase component with
the DatabaseName called Loans-CS. This is the only thing I can think of
that would cause this error. Try downloading and installing the latest
version of FF2 from TurboPower.

I installed FF2, and started the FF2 server. Then I ran the converter on
the DBDEMOS paradox tables to FF2 format. Merged the converted paradox
tables with the FF2 RB end user tables in the FF2 end user demo directory.
I created an alias on the server to point at the new tables. Then I
connected the TffDatabase in the RB demo project to point to the new alias.
Connected the database object in the object inspector to test the
connection. Ran the project, and created a new report. Went into DADE and
in the File | DataSettings menu option, verified that the
Session Type = FlashFilerSession
Database = eudatabase
Database Type = Other
CollationTypes = ASCII
Case Sensitive = checked
SQL Type = SQL1.

Created a new dataview with the query wizard, selected tables and previewed
them with no problems. I'm out of ideas on what would cause your problem,
since we are using the same DADE plugin that is shipped with RB 6.03. I
would say get the latest version from Turbopower and then let us know how it
turns out.
