Ryan,
Instead of using joined datasets and a grouped style report, try creating a
Master-Detail report using subreports. Link the datasets using standard
Delphi linking. Creating a Master-Detail report is more flexable than a<… -
Alex,
Sorry about the procedure name, that was a little confusing. This can be
done in delphi as well during runtime in the Variable.OnCalc event.
Something like this...
procedure TForm1.ppVariable1Calc(Sender: TObje… -
Alex,
Use a variable or a label to concatinate the strings from the pipelines in
an event handler. The event is going to either be the Variable.OnCalc or
the Label.OnPrint event. Below is an example of code that will perform t… -

I can confirm that the XP Theme support works correctly in ReportBuilder

Try shutting down the Delphi IDE when errors such as this one occur. You
may need to update your printer driver because when you're in the RB
designer it relies on the printer driver to measure text. If the printer
driver is corrupt… -
Paul,
Below is a link to an example that will help you with this issue. It uses a
technique that uses two subreports to generate the two sets of fields on the
same dataset twice and then reorders the pages for the actual output… -

Dave,
I tried recreating your issue with the \RBuilder\Demos\4. EndUser
Databases\InterBase\1. BDE demo and wasn't able to cause an AV. Please try
to recreate the problem using one of our demos and tell me the exact steps IBelow is a link to an example on how to start printing labels in different
cells. This only works in top to bottom order.

Make sure you are using the TppVariable.OnCalc event to perform any
calculations on a variable. Below is an article explaining how to provide
calculations in a report. If this does not help, please send a small

Check the help | about menu option and check the version listed to make sure

Try accessing the rbItem dataset used by the ReportExplorer and retrieve the
current record. This should be the item currently selected in the report

Try doing this using two side-by-side subreports and setting the ParentWidth
to false so they can be aligned next to eachother. Once it is in this
configuration it's just a standard duplex report once you configure th…John,
You can do this by concatenating the two strings into one TppVariable.
Below is a link to a simple example on how to do this.

Thanks for the solution. If you would like to send us an example, we could
test it further.

Mark,
You need to go into the Report.PrinterSetup property and make sure the
PrinterName is set to 'default', not 'screen'. We added this message in
ReportBuilder to warn users of this because when the printer name is set toJon,
I adjusted the demo I had you dowload earlier to work the way you need it
to. Now you are able to select the 'short date' format and save the
template, then the format will reflect another computer's setup when they

After further research, I found that you shouldn't need to create a
customdate format because by default, ReportBuilder uses the Short Date
format in Windows. When creating your template, make sure there is no

I added the two lines of code below into the ReplaceDisplayFormats example
and it seemed to work fine. I ran the project, entered the designer and
added a date system variable to the header band of the report. Next I
The Short Date format is retrieved using Delphi calls which get the client
machine's local Short Date format. If you would like to customize the
display formats provided, check out the ppDisplayFormat.pas file in the
RBuilder Source.…Warren,
What version of ReportBuilder are you using? Please try using RB 7.02 Trial
Edition to reproduce the error. If you can, please send an example of the
problem to support@digital-metaphors.com.

Yelena,
Make sure the StartNewPage property for the group is set to false. If this
does not help, please send an example using the DBDEMOS database
demonstrating the problem to support@digital-metaphors.com and we'll take a

Check to see if you have the Start New Column option selected in the Report

are having with the groups breaking in the wrong place.
