Bmp Export Dialog

edited July 2008 in General
Running D7, RB 10.07
I have an application where I output a report to bmp for exporting.
How can I turn off the BMP Export Dialog off? I do not want it to display.
I just want to create the file and have no user interfacing involved.

Thanks,
Bob

    RB cannot natively export to bmp, so perhaps this is a question for the
    third party export device that you are using.

    To generate a report without displaying an interface, you typically do
    something like

    myReport.ShowPrintDialog := False;
    myReport.ShowCancelDialog := False;

    myReport.DeviceType := {device name}
    myReport.FileName := {file name}


    myReport.Print;

    I am really sorry about that. I completely forgot that I was using another
    component for some of the exports. The component included a property for
    not showing the setup dialog. Been so long since I changed its properties,
    I just forgot it wasn't part of RB.

    Thanks,
