how to reparent existing components through code

rbuser

hi,
i need to make some changes to existing customized POS reports

for example, i need to place some tpp components into a new region and
shiftrelative that region.
now i can add or delete components in the saved design but i'm missing
something in the process of reparenting existing components to a region.
i can't simply delete and recreate cause that will result in customization
loss...

tia,
marc

The 'parent' is the band or region property of the component

myLabel.Band := myReport.Detailband; // label's parent is detail band

myLabel.Region := myRegion; // label's parent is region

This rbWiki article shows how to iterate over the RAP programs. You can
delete a RAP program by calling Program.Free.
