Hi Ralph,
Are you using a registered version of ReportBuilder or are you using an
application with ReportBuilder built in?
A simple solution would be to place a TppMemo in your detail band and update
its text based … -
Hi Jeroen,
Once the datapipelines have been opened, the file stream has already been
created so it is not possible to rename the text file at that time. The
only option would be to possibly create a pass-thru function that ac… -

We have many customers using thermal receipt printers successfully with the
techniques given in the Continuous Paper article. Take a look at the

Hi Ian,
I believe the issue is the "word" type. Rap does not have a concept of this
type. Try using an Integer type instead and the routine should function
correctly.

Hi Ian,
Try removing the "overload" keyword from the declairation of the function
signature. Note that unless you build this into a design-time package and
install in into the IDE, your code will only compile at runtime.
Hi Jan,
There is not built-in feature to rotate an image in ReportBuilder. From
RAP, you would need to create a pass-thru function that rotates the image in
Delphi code. Below are a couple links I found on how this can be do…Hi Jim,
Sorry I did not see you were using Char types and I miss-used the word
"ordinal". RAP does not have the capability of using Char values in a Case
statement only numerical values. One option would be to implement the …Hi Jim,
The RAP case statement only accepts ordinal values similar to the way the
Delphi case statement functions.

in Case statement Comment by nicocizik February 2009Hi Paul,
Once you know which table the user would like to search on, you can easily
change or create new autosearch criteria using the SQLBuilder class. The
routines in this class are available in RAP and allow you easy acces…Hi Lars,
Be sure you call Report.InitializeParameters before you make a call to
PrintToDevices. This will ensure that the GlobalOnCreate is properly fired.

Earlier versions of ReportBuilder (RB 7 and earlier) had a limitation where
variable calculations in the Footer Band with a dynamic height detail band

You are correct. The InitializeParameters event fires too late to assign
the parameter values however it can be used to assign the search expression
of an AutoSearch Field. There is a patch available that allows the …Hi Tim,
My guess would be that this is a timing issue. The AutoSearch Criteria has
already been created by the time the BeforeAutoSearchDialogCreate event is
called. Try moving your code to an earlier event such as

The current best way to do this would be to create a custom autosearch

At runtime, they are set in the Designer.DatabaseSettings property, but at

At design time, by default, the datasettings should be set to the DBDEMOS
database. Try selecting File | Data Settings... and be sure the Session

in Unable to load BeforePrint code for GroupFooterband1, no object with this name found Comment by nicocizik May 2009Hi Ad,
Which version of ReportBuilder and Delphi are you using? Does this happen

One option is to alter your pass-thru function signature to include the
