Please create a simple, minimal Delphi example using DBDemos and e-mail to
support@digital-metaphors.com and we can take at a look at it. If the
DBDemos data is not sufficient, create some simple Paradox tables using
Database De… -
Okay, now I understand the issue.
The Report.CreateAutoSearchCriteria method is limited because is accepts the
DataPipeline and FieldName as parameter, but the query may contain the same
field name from 2 different tables.… -
This is not a known issue.
1. First step would be to get these reports working properly in a stand
alone reporting application. I do not think this issue is related to the
server or web tier at all.
2. Most data… -
The web log file is managed by the WebTier in a thread-safe manner. We have
not had any reports of issues related to this from other developers.
If you have an ISAPI dll and a WebDebugger app running at the same time this

Try testing the WebTier without that call.
It may be that the WebTier is unable to create the Log file, see
WebTier.LogSettings.

Please post questions to either the newsgroups OR
support@digital-metaphors.com, but not both. TIA
Check that the same SessionID is being used for each request. If a new
session id is required, it will definitely display t… -
Try testing with RB 7.02 and the latest ExtraDevices, which is currently
2.6. It should work properly.

I searched Google looking for answers to this issue, but have not found
anything. There are other developers using other tools to create PDFs and
they have the same issue. Perhaps ask Pragnaan if they of a solution.
Perhaps ther…
If you access the Criteria fields as shown in the example, you can perhaps
set them to AutoSearch true/false, although timing wise I do not know
whether this will work.

Search criteria created via the Data work space of the report designer can
optionally be designated as AutoSearch criteria. By definition AutoSearch
criteria are displayed in the AutoSearch dialog.
I think what you are asking, i…
This example shows how to initialize autosearch parameters on the
webtier:

Its going to work differently on the WebTier. The WebTier custom parameters
demo shows this.
I will try to create an example that is more focused on what you describe.
I am not sure whether it is possible to validate…
This is correct. Events implemented on the server, may fire multiple times.
They may fire once to build a report volume directory and then fire again
when the report is accessed. Performing these activities may require
multiple …
Perhaps this will help......

The error you are receiving indicates that either the content parameter
is missing or there is no content provider registered for the specified
content type.

In the WebTier custom parameters demo there is some code in the

Try adding the Location parameter in the Server.OnGetSessionParameters
event. I think that will enable you to use the ValidateSessionParameters
event to retrieve the Location parameter value from the database and assign
it to th…
One option is to use the AutoSearch parameters feature. See
RBuilder\Demos\AutoSearch. This feature is supported by RB Server. The
other option is to use the custom Session and Report parameters that were
added to RB 7.02.
Please see BServer\Demos\Web Tier\Custom Viewer for an example of how to add
additional output formats to the WebTier. The example includes a ReadMe.doc
and commented code. The architecture has been greatly simplified.
There is custom html login form that I used for the

Configure the WebTier.IniSettings to load the WebTier configuration
parameters from an .ini file. See the RBServer.hlp for details. This will
not add the "http: prefix" and will also enable you to have use one .ini

In the next maintenance release there will be a new
TrsReportCatalog.GetReportModuleVolume(aVolumeName) method that make
retrieving the report volume instance simpler.

I was finally able to create an example of using TrsReportModuleVolume
event-handlers:
http://www.digital-metaphors.com/tips/Repo…
No. I think this is a limitation of the current implementation.
I tried several work arounds and all failed.
Have researched this, but thus far have not found any way to access the
ReportModuleVolume instance. I will continue to research it more and post a
follow up here.....

Try defining a custom parameter at the Session or Report level. Then use
ClientReport.GetSessionParameters or GetReportParameters methods to retrieve
the parameters. On the server side write code that returns a custom
parameter that i…
Try going back to the RBServer demos. Then try modifying one of the demo
incrementally to achieve the desired result.
If you still have an issue, create a simple example, perhaps using a

Rather than Report.BeforePrint try using Report.OnGetAutoSearchFieldValues.
For an example see dm0010.pas in the RBServer\Demos\Servers\Main

I just tested the example and it works for me here. We have had no other
