You can add this functionality by building an alternative front end to the
reports. One approach might be to implement this using the custom parameters
feature shown in the RBuilder\Demos\WebTier\Custom Parameters demo.
1-3. These extra fields are not going to be supported by the web Report
Explorer. It is not customizeable at this time.
4-6. See the RBuilder\Demos\WebTier\Custom Parameters and
RBuilder\Demos\Servers\Custom Paramete…
Sorry I think I misunderstood. You are requesting that a new property be
added to the WebTier to enable the developer to specify an allowable date
format. I can add this to our todo list for future enhancements. Thanks for
the s…
The intent of the architectuire is that the Javascript can be designed to
validate the user input and then convert the user input to a standard format
that is sent to the WebTier. The challenge is how to structure the
Javascript…
There is a second piece of JavaScript that converts the date entered by the
user into a standard format (CCYY-MM-DD) that will be processed by the
WebTier. I will send this unit to you.

This is currently being researched. No need to keep posting about the same

I have created a patch for the WebTier that enables the ClientReport to use
HTTP to communicate with the report server. It needs to be tested.

No it does not currently work - see my original post. I offered to research
it if you are interested. Seems like you are interested so I will research
it and see whether it is feasible to patch the current code base.
I know that you have a Delphi GUI app that is the client. Perhaps for
additional clarity I should have specified TrsClientReport rather than
ClientReport.in Encrypting / securing the communication between client and server Comment by nardmoseley February 2004
The ClientReport/ClientReportExplorer are designed to support the following
two configurations. However only configuration A is working with the current
release. I might be able to patch the code to get configuration B working.

If you have search criteria that can be specified by the users login, then
you do not need to designate them as AutoSearch criteria. AutoSearch is

The ReportVolume.Publishing options can be used to control whether reports
are generating Incrmentally. For performance, I recommend using the

There is nothing in ReportBuilder that would cause such a limitation.
1. Make sure that the report has a thread-safe environment in which to
execute. This primiarly means definining a named connection (and a session

By definition, the Session parameters are only relevant to a single session.
Start a new session and you need to specify the Session parameters. In the
RBServer\Demos\WebTier\Custom Parameters this is accomplished by displaying

in Running RBServer within a Delphi TService Comment by nardmoseley March 2004
You cannot use the rsServerActiveX / COM automation feature that the
RBWinService uses. That is limited to haveing one TrsServer application
registered. You register a second one and it will replace the first.
Therefore yo…
No. The TrsServer application needs to include a reference to the unit
rsServerActiveX in the 'uses' clause. Then run the application a single
time. The first time you run the application it is register as a COM server.

Send a request to support@digital-metaphors.com and we can you the source
code to the RB Windows Service - it is a Delphi TService such as you
describe.
