Hi Denise,
For future reference please simply reply to my response to continue the
original thread rather than starting a new one.

Hi Steve,
Which version of ReportBuilder and Delphi are you using? The TppImage
object saves all images down as bitmaps so this will increase disk usage
however I have not seen the file size you are mentioning in my tests her… -
Hi Jeff,
One option you might try is simply disconnecting the pipeline from the main
report if the user does not want to view those records. This way only the
calculated data is retrieved.

It is necessary for the report engine to traverse all the records if you are
calculating a sum within ReportBuilder. Setting the Cancel Dialog
(ShowCancelDialog property) to True should give your users a status messa…Hi Steve,
For RB 11 we changed the Query Designer so you can type your expressions
directly into the "Function" combobox. Once you select "Expression" the
text should be highlighted and you can simply start typing your expres…Hi Ken,
We have not seen this behavior before. If possible, please send a simple
example (perhaps using the DBDEMOS database) that demonstrates this behavior
and that I can run on my machine in .zip format to

The image devices give full access to the actual image objects allowing you
to change resolution, color depth, etc. Take a look at the following
article on making customizations before exporting to a JPEG.
Hi Alessandra,
The following code worked correctly with RB 12.01. Note that all
measurements with drawcommands are in microns so you will need to convert
your measurements if needed. Conversion routines can be found in the <…Hi Alessandra,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? In my testing with RB 12.01,
placing a DBText in the PageStyle with the angle set to 45 produced the
expected output. Be sure you have the AutoSize property set to…Hi Nicos,
The easiest way to add a watermark it to use the PageStyle band. Anything
placed inside this band will print behind the rest of the report. Enable
the PageStyle by selecting Report | Page Style... from the main men…Hi Adam,
Take a look at the following article/example. It shows how you can refresh
a report after a DrawCommandClick event has been fired.
in Manipulating Report Data during Preview Comment by nicocizik August 2010Hi Chus,
The Copies property is part of the PrinterSetup and only applies when
printing to the printer. The file devices are not capable of exporting
multiple copies of a single report. You will need to export the same repor…Hi Chus,
It is currently not possible to access the CopyNo value of a SystemVariable
at runtime at a point where you could use the value to change the report.
It is possible however to keep track of the copy number manually us…Hi Chau,
There is no automatic way to export a report as a flash file however you
might be able to use and PDF to SWF converter to get the output you need. A
quick search on google revealed the following product. I'm sure ot…Hi Michael,

There is no automatic way to export a single subreport to file while
printing another section of the report to paper. I believe the best option
would be to do this with two separate print jobs.

My first suggestion would be to upgrade your version of ReportBuilder to
9.03 and see if that helps the issue. If not, try creating a simple example
that demonstrates this issue and send it to support@digital-metaph…Hi Marek,
The autosearch dialogs are designed for data searching purposes. It is
possible to completely replace the current autosearch dialogs (as well as
any other RB dialog) using the method used in the example located in t…Hi Eug,
Thanks for the explanation. You are correct in that the Skip example was
not intended to be used when all records are to be skipped. Ideally if you
would like to filter out all records of a dataset, you would do so i…Hi Eug,
Where are you making this call (which event)? The Skip routine should
simply move to the next record without increasing the traversal count
however if it is called too late, you may be getting incorrect results.

1. Create a new report and set the PrinterSetup.PaperName to "Envelope C5".

From the information below, it seems like the error is occurring with the

One option would be to save your current report to file (.rtm), then load
