Aditional Report info

rbuser

Hello folks,

In early versions I was able to add some extra information in the template
loadstream & savestream event by a record. In version 11 this is not
working. Have you any sample where I can add a record to the template info?

Thanks in advance,

Francisco Ruiz

Had another developer email a question about this yesterday.

There is an example in RBuilder\Demos\EndUser\MDI. Run the example and
access the report designer. Then select File | Save As and then select File
| Open.

I did some testing yesterday and found an issue related to Delphi 2009. A
small modification was required to the record declaration. Below is the
modified declaration. I changed the Comments datatype from String to
ShortString.

{record structure used to store information inside report template }
TppTemplateInfo = record
HeaderID: Integer;
Comments: ShortString;
DateTime: TDateTime;

end; {record, TppTemplateRec}

Other options instead of ShortString, use fixed sized arrays char. For
example, AnsiChar[80] or Byte[80] or for Unicode characters use
WideChar[80].
