Aligning two ppDBText's

rbuser

Hi there,

I try to align two ppDBText's to each other, but I can't get it to work. I
have something like "First Name" and "Last Name" and want to align the "Last
Name" to the right end of "First Name". Is that possible. I tried regions,
but they only shift vertically, but not horizontically. I use Interbase, so
cancat'ing the two names would result in an empty string, if one was empty
... ( select first || last as name from address).

Any suggestions welcome.

You'll need to use a TppVariable (Variable.Datatype = String), and then use
its OnCalc event to read the two values from the data pipeline and
concatenate them together. The RBAddOn component set has extended support
for merging of fields. www.bancoems.com\RBAddOn.htm
