Hi Lawrence,
All formatting occurs in the TppDisplayFormat.Format routine inside the ppDisplayFormat.pas file. The Delphi routines FormatFloat, FormatCurr, and FloatToStrF are used in various cases based on the format given and data type… -
OpenXLSFile is deprecated and only retained for backward compatibility. I suggest searching your code for any use of OpenXLSFile or OpenPDFFile and replacing with the Report.OpenFile property.

Hi Dirk,
Try placing a breakpoint in the TppFileDevice.EndJob routine (ppFilDev.pas file line 1187) to see if the OpenFile property is indeed False.
This is the only place an exported file will be automatically opened. If it … -
Hi Lawrence,
This looks fine except there is likely no need to recreate the memory stream to assign the graphic. Assigning the oBmp bitmap to the Picture.Graphic should also work.in Is there a limit on DBImage data size Comment by nicocizik June 2024 -

Hi Lawrence,
I suggest using a TppImage and manually loading the processed image data for each record.
1. Load the image data from your DB into a stream (using DataPipeline.GetFieldAsStream).
2. Process the image data.

Please contact TRichView support for help with this issue. They will then contact us with a reproducible example.Hi Jan,
The version of SynEdit used in ReportBuilder has been highly customized and was not originally intended for 64 bit applications. We have converted it to do so however occasionally an issue will arise that slipped through the crac…Hi Andy,
Check your form definition at Delphi design-time to be sure the DataSettings are correct in the designer. If so, then they will stay consistent unless you change them in code.
Note that you need to have a valid Sessio…Hi Dusten,
Looking closer at your code, it appears you are assigning the owner of your dynamic objects incorrectly.
TAdsQuery.Create(FConn);
TDataSource.Create(FReportQry);
TppDBPipeline.Create(FDS);

My guess is that the connection to the chart is being lost at some point (likely as the template is loaded but no pipeline is assigned). I suggest re-assigning the Series.Datasource property after assigning the Report.DataPipe…Hi John,
This is why we avoid every using "with" statements
. At best they are confusing, at worst... dangerous.Thanks Tommy,
This information will be very helpful for other RB users moving forward.Hi Perry,
The barcode component simply generates based on its Data property. Assuming the barcode has not already printed, you should be able to update this property with data produced by a variable calculation without issues.
Hi Tommy,
I'll help with this issue moving forward since I wrote the Thumbnail feature.
The TppThumbnailViewer is a descendent of a TScrollBox with its DoMouseWheel function overridden. This event should fire anytime the mou…Hi Ueliton,
When merging two reports on screen there are two main options:

Thanks for the suggestion. I will add PDF/UA support to our list of possible enhancements to research and possibly add for a later release of ReportBuilder.Hi Lawrence,
Correct, when both Delphi and RAP events are implemented, they will both fire in that order.
Static images (TppImage) will not load for each detail band assuming they have not been changed in the OnGetPicture event…Hi Lawrence,
If your subreport is located inside the Detail band, try setting the ppDetailBand.BandsPerRecord property as needed in an event that fires before the band prints (OnBeforePrint).Hi Lawrence,
RAP supports pass-thru functions to allow developers to add their own routines. See the RAP help and the main RAP demo for full documentation and examples of utilizing pass-thru functions in your application.

In my testing with the latest version of RB, the OnPreviewFormCreate events are firing as expected.
Are you loading templates? If so, you need to be sure to reconnect any events once the templates have been loaded or…Hi Sergio,
We are curious what the issue was and how you solved it. It may be useful for other developers with the… Hi Lawrance,
The datapipeline is simply the way ReportBuilder communicates with the dataset. Linking one to a report allows it to access the data as well as automatically traverse each row for each detail band rendered.
If you…Hi Felix,
There is no built-in way in RAP to raise an exception.
One option is to simply use a "ShowMessage" command to provide your users feedback on certain actions.
If you would like to raise a Delphi exception, y…Hi Antonio,
