RB 10.06 & TeeChart Standard 4.04

rbuser

I have Delphi 7, RB 10.06, & TeeChart Standard 4.04 (the one that came with
the delphi install)

I have added the following to the uses clause of my end-user solution app:
ppChrt,daDataModule,raCodMod,ppCTMain,ppChrtDP,myChkBox

I can see the TeeChart component in the report designer and I can drop a
chart on my report, I can even run the report and see the empty chart
layout. But I cannot get into the chart editor. The documentation states
that I should be able to get to the chart editor/properties via the popup
menu but right licking on the TeeChart component in the report only yeilds
the following menu options:
Bring To Front | Send To Back | Position | Visible

If anyone could help me figure out what is wrong I would greatly appreciate
it!

Thanks All,
Branden Johnson

The standard version of TeeChart does not include the ability to edit charts
at design time in ReportBuilder. The TeeChart editor is available at
runtime however. See the ReportBuilder help under the ReportBuilder
Reference | TeeChart | Delphi 7.. section in the RBuilder.hlp for more
information.

I looked at the documentation and it stated "ReportBuilder 10.x for Delphi 7
has been verified to work with TeeChart versions 4.x through 7.x". I looked
into purchasing TeeChart and they are on version 8.x. Is this currently
"verified to work" with ReportBuilder 10.x for Delphi 7?

Also, are there any examples of using TeeChart in a end user report? A
"hard-coded" report will work too, but an end user example is preferred.

Hi Branden,

If you would like to use TeeChart 8.x with RB 10.06, please send a small
email to support@digital-metaphors.com requesting the updated packages and
files and we'll send them to you asap.

You can add TeeChart support at runtime by including ppChrtUI in your uses
clause. This will enable the TppTeeChart and TppDPTeeChart components to be
included and edited in the designer at runtime.

We do not have any end-user examples of using TeeChart. The TeeChart
component is virtually identical to the Delphi component so any examples
provided by Steema would apply to RB as well. Demo 92 located in the
\RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\... directory gives an example of including a
TeeChart in a report.
