How to load reports

rbuser

?In my application i need to load the reports at runtime not from the
report builder but through a menu option.I don't have to use report
explorer because in this i am not able to pass parameterised query.I have
tried this code but it is not working .What is the method to do above.

fname:string;
if dlgOpen.Execute then
begin
fname:=dlgOpen.FileName;
frmLocation.ppReport1.ArchiveFileName:=fname;
frmLocation.ppReport1.Print;

end;

thanks

Hi Lucy,

If you are trying to load an Archive file (.raf), you will need to use the
TppArchiveReader object rather than the TppReport object.

ppArchiveReader1.ArchiveFileName := fName;
ppArchiveReader1.Print;

If you are loading a template file (.rtm), you will need to assign the
Template properties of the report before printing...

ppReport1.Template.FileName := fName;
ppReport1.Template.LoadFromFile;
ppReport1.Print;
