printing pages to cache in Memory

rbuser

Jim Bennett provided me with the code below to print a report to memory.

How do I access the value of each Report objects text once this is done
???

For instance, I have ppVariable1 which evaluates to "14,963.00". How do
I find that in the ppReport1 object ???

Do I go to the TppPage object and Access the DrawCommands property ???

If so, How do I figure out which one is Variable1 ??? Could somebody
provide me some code examples ???

Thank you.

You can create a device and print the pages to a cache in memory, without
sending them to the preview:

procedure PrintToCache;
var
lDevice: TppDevice;
begin

lDevice := TppDevice.Create(Self);
lDevice.PageSetting := psLastPage;
lDevice.Publisher := ppReport1.Publisher;

ppReport1.CachePages := True;
ppReport1.PrintToDevices;

lDevice.Free;
end;

Hello All:

I figured out that after ppreport1.printtodevices I can access the text
component of each report item. That works great.
