Report explorer inactive after starting

rbuser

Hello DM,

A customer with a dual monitor has the following problem with the EndUser
ReportBuilder solution:

After starting the EndUser application, the report explorer is displayed but
is not active. There is also no way to activate the application. The
application is visible and running in the task manager but is not visible by
using ALT - TAB. The only solution we found was removing RBuilder.ini
When no ini file is found the application starts normal and gives no
problems. But restarting gives again an inactive application because of the
generated rbuilder.ini.
When I copy his RBuilder.ini to my system (one monitor) --> everything goes
fine. Other co-workers don't have a problem either.

Is this a known issue and is there a solution?

His configuration: Win XP Pro SP2, dual monitors. Application is build
using D7, RB7.04, IBX

I can send you the rbuilder.ini if needed.

Thanks in advance,
Jeroen R?ttink

We do not have a dual monitor system here with which to test. I suspect the
issue has to do with the positioning of the form.

Try tracing the code in ppExpFrm.pas, the method
TppReportExplorerForm.LoadStateInfo is responsible for reading the window
position information from the ini file and setting the bounds of the form.

Hi Nard,

The person with this problem is now on holiday. I don't have a dual monitor
system either so
it has to wait until he's back. I'll keep you informed.

Regards,
Jeroen.
