xml as report template

rbuser

Hi,

Is there any way to create report template by xml format.
Basically, I am wondering if it is possible to create report template
through web browser or transfer richtext to report template.
Is there XML format report template?

Thanks

York

Hi York,

Sorry, ReportBuilder does not have the ability to read XML. If you save a
template in ASCII format, you can see how it is formatted. What are you
trying to accomplish with your application? It is possible to load a
template and manually add a TppRichText component to the report using the
Template.OnLoadEnd event.

Since RB can save template as Text format, can RB read back the text format
for template.

I would like to use web browser to create simple RB template without RB
Designer.

Yes. RB can read/write ascii text templates.

You can use Report.Template.LoadFromFile or Report.Template.LoadFromStream
methods.
