What is probably is happening is that the OnTraversal is firing too often.
It will fire everytime the data pipeline moves its record position. It will
fire when the report engine moves forward or backward in the dataset in

You cannot modify the interface sections of classes and use the distributed

Thanks for the example. Many of the data access components were custom, so

This depends on the Subreport.PrintBehavior property.
If you are using section style subreports, then set the subreport's ZOrder
to determine the print order. Use the BringToFront/SendToBack to control
this on the subreports.We've researched this some more and found out what was happening. We'll have
this fixed for the next maintenance release for Teechart support. First,

We haven't seen this behavior before. It may have been related to the fact
that you just dropped the memo in a region. If it is reproducable can you
tell us how to reproduce it?

the report. This way the data pipeline assignment will be automatically
hooked back up to each data aware control when you reconnect the data

that it could be the order causing the problem, so I created a test project
