Rap Function Search

rbuser

I have a function declared in delphi that is used in several reports via
the raRegisterFunction routine. The reports are saved on disk as a text
file (not binary). Is there a way to search thru all the rtm files
(report files) and find out which reports use this function (without
having to call them all up individually)?

Delphi 7:

Report writer version: 11.04

That works thanks. Just curious, is there a way to get a list of the
rap code? For example loop through something that gets the UpperCase,
trim, etc commands. No big deal, just curious.

Hi Jeff,

You could use the same method in the example to do this. The example
already loops through each RAP program and retrieves the RAP code as a
string. During this process, you could search for any key words and add
them to a list.

I meant is there a way to get a list of just the keywords that the
report writer RAP can use for any report? Ie, all of the keywords
available on the language(?) tab in the report writer. Not the keywords
a specific report uses (I already have that actually).

Hi Jeff,

If you are looking for a written list of all functions available to RAP,
take a look a the ReportBuilder RAP Reference in the help. The "Reference"
section gives all documented RAP functions.
