Hi Craig,
Try using the TppRichText object to perform a hanging indent inside a
report. Once the text is loaded into the control, you can use the Paragraph
property to assign it's FirstIndent and LeftIndent values (to essenti… -

Hi Alam,

Hi Arnol,
Thank you for inquiring about ReportBuilder.

Hi Terry,
In my quick testing with RB 10.07, the DBCalc component does display zero if
the BlankWhenZero property is set to False and there are no records to be
counted. Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? Is anyth… -
ReportBuilder is currently available for the Windows platform only.
There is currently not enough market demand for a Linux solution to justify
the development and support costs. Thought it may change in the future,

Hi Bob,
Try using the OnGetText event to check the value of the datafield and set
the text of the DBText object accordingly. For instance if the field value
is null, simply set the text parameter to '$0.00'.

Hi Nick,
1. You can set the ModalResult property of the print dialog to mrCancel in
the Report.OnPrintDialogClose event if there is not enough disk space to
hold the file.

Hi Marc,
Unfortunately ReportBuilder does not support nested regions. I recommend
you create a subreport to keep these components together, then use regions
to have the image shift relative to the Stretchable component(s).Hi Carlos,
In my testing with RB 10.07, if I load the field editor of a DBPipeline and
alter the FieldAlias property of a defined field, this is used in the
CrossTab designer when it is opened. Are you certain the crosstab is…The field name in the crosstab designer is determined by the Field Alias of
the field you select. This can be changed in DADE (data tab) using the
Query Designer. Simply click twice over the Field Alias (similar to

Sorry for the delayed response, I somehow lost your post within another
thread.
If your printer does not have the ability to accept escape codes, you may
consider researching its custom API commands.
Hi Rich,
ReportBuilder 9 does not support Delphi 2007. You will need to upgrade your
version of ReportBuilder to the latest (10.07) if you would like to use
Delphi 2007.

Hi Frank,
In this case, you could possibly keep track of the field that needs to be
subtracted separately from the others using a separate variable or a class
field. Or you could place a condition in the OnCalc to only use th…Hi Frank,
Rather than calculate the value of the three sums, try calculating the sum
directly in the OnCalc of the TppVariable. If the timing is set to
Traversal (which is the default setting), the OnCalc event will fire for …Hi Tom,

to the reset settings. (right click over the TppVariable component and
select "timing").

I'm a bit unclear about your specifications. From your description below it
seems you only want to display the tally of the last subreport printed. If
this is the case, why bother keep the tally for the previous subr…Hi Jason,

Digital MetaphorsHi Jason,
If you are primarily using static components such as Labels, you will need
to be sure the bottom of the label component does not touch (or overflow)
the bottom of the region. In some zoom settings in may still look …Hi Michael,
Are you actually changing the data in the field you are accessing? If so,
you need to be sure you are closing the pipeline and dataset before
regenerating the report. You might also consider using a regular TppMe…Hi Michael,

Say for instance you have two DBText objects. In the OnGetText event you
would do something like the following to determine the width of the DBText
