Report Builder with Vista

edited September 2008 in General
I am converting an application from Delphi 5 with Report Builder 7.04 to
Delphi 2007 with Report Builder 10.09.

Each time the application runs, it takes 90 seconds to produce the first
report when run on a Vista machine. Subsequent reports take a few seconds
when run on Vista. The same application and report takes a few seconds when
run on Windows XP.

When using Delphi 5 and Report Builder 7.04 to produce the application, it
took a few seconds to produce the same report on both an XP and Vista
machine.

Added the line:
TppIniStoragePlugIn.SetStorageName(lsStorageName );

to get the application to work in Vista but otherwise it is the same
application and report for both Delphi 5 and Delphi 2007.

Do you have any suggestions?

    I don't think this is a Vista issue--I've seen this with multiple
    applications & 3rd party libraries, and AFAICR it was when there was a
    server printer that was not avaiable when the software attempts to access
    the printer (could even be just trying to check if it is available).

    Thanks very much Ed. That was the answer. I have recently replaced the
    printer on the network.
