Recurring entries

edited November 2008 in RAP
Hi from Miami, Fl.. glad this group exists !

Maybe I can get some feedback

Lets make believe a small database

IMMUNIZATION_NAME | IMM_MAKER | IMM_TOTAL_DOSES

dPAT aventis 5
polio merke 4
mmr merke 2

I would like the report engine to cycle on (print) each record
"IMM_TOTAL_DOSES" times, then move on to next record and do the same, ..etc,
etc

I think this is time for a "for loop" but I am unsure of the syntax ....

for x in 1 to IMM_TOTAL_DOSES do

(( here the code to say 'print this record' ))

(( in RAP do I need to decrement x?))
done

Also need help as WHERE to put this done in the event scheme

Be Well!

    Hi Ralph,

    Are you using a registered version of ReportBuilder or are you using an
    application with ReportBuilder built in?

    A simple solution would be to place a TppMemo in your detail band and update
    its text based on which record you are printing...

    Perhaps inside the DetailBand.BeforePrint event...

    begin
    ppMemo.Lines.Clear;

    for liIndex := 0 to ppReport.Datapipeline['IMM_TOTAL_DOSES'] - 1 do
    ppMemo.Lines.Add({add data here});

    end;
