Yes, you can use a shape or region component to do this. For example:
procedure TForm1.ppDetailBand1BeforePrint(Sender: TObject);

For left to right column traversal, you can trick the engine into moving to

Do not recompile any RB packages. Any patches which need to be applied are
only intended to work at runtime using the source pas files. Some patches

You can use one event handler because this way the eent gets fired once for
every detail record. You can then use this to update the variable in the
main report. The variables only calculate based on the record change of he

You can also use TppVariables and in the OnCalc evnet handler of the

http://www.digital-metaphors.com/rcl/twpaintbox.zipYes, it should do this automatically. But, we can reproduce the problem.
We'll put it on the maintenance list to be fixed in a future release.
Thankyou for your patience.

of columns. This way the crosstab will generate downwards. The alternative
