1. Is there a time frame when UNIQUEIDENTIFIER field type will be supported
by RB?
In particular in inter-view links.

2. Also will SearchCriteria Fields have correct Field Display Alias
populated correctly when loaded from Template?

    1. No time frame has been set. Definitely not until the next major release -
    which would likely be around the time fram of Borlands Delphi 9 release. The
    feature will only be implemented if we can determine how to implement it.

    2. There is patch available for RB 7.03 that enables AutoSearchFields
    created by the QueryDataView to use the Alias specified by the Select field.
    This workds for newly created search fields. For existing reports, you would
    need to load the template and edit the query dataview by removing the search
    condition and then re-adding it. You can contact
    support@digital-metaphors.com to receive the patch.
