  • Thank you Nico -- I think I'm close to getting this like I need it...but I
    need a little more help.
    I was able to get my labels to display an extra day, but how do I get the
    search to include the extra day?

    Here's what I ha…
  • Hello,

    I have been able to solve the problem related to oracle sortorder I had
    a few months ago. I just post the solution here so others might benefit
    from it. After all, it took me a while to figure it all out.

    The…
  • Hello Nard,

    I think I have read the article about 20 times by now and I still can't
    figure out what I might be doing wrong.

    *) My detail data is sorted on the link field
    *) The link field between the two datasets is …
  • Nard,

    I tried to create an example project, but I can't reproduce the problem
    with paradox.

    Paradox sorts the records like this: 4988B, 4989B, 498B
    while Oracle sorts them like this: 498B, 4988B, 4989B
    And in th…
  • Nard,

    thank you for your answer, but I still wasn't able to solve my problem.

    The link between the two datasets is on an integer field, so I would
    think the collation order is not of any importance then? I tried
    cha…
  • You can define a query like "... from xxx..." where "xxx" is an SP, and
    work...

  • It's all good.... I've been fighting this thing for way too many days for
    such a piddly issue.

    Metaviewer just flat wasn't happy with the line depth changing and was
    having issues with the control characters most especially, I t…
  • I'm getting closer... I find using a height for a memo field of .1666 (1/6)
    for a single line is reading in. I've used a custom paper size to bi-pass
    or eliminate the page break problem for the time being.

    The report is simple …
  • Thanks, Nick. That's what I needed to know.

  • hi, i have a similar question... i have a rtm on end user... i need to
    attach another query adding a where clause for filtering some data... what
    can do??

  • Thanks Nico. I had looked through the Report Tree as well but somehow or
    other I missed the section "Output - File" where of course the end user can
    change all manner of settings.

    "There are none so blind as those who cannot se…
  • I just suddenyl thought (on re-reading your message) was the original 7.04
    report already defined with AllowPrint toFile:=True? If that is the case
    then it's showing the behaviour which I'm referring to, being if the setting
    is *alre…
  • Hi Nico; it seems that if I have an "imported" RTM report file which
    *didn't* originally have the AllowPrintToFile set to True and I load it

    (1) there seems to be no way I can set the AllowPrintToFile to true
    (2) it doesn't appe…
  • Sorry, i mean the other way.
    Is it possible to not print "0.00" if the value is "0"? Like in DbText and
    float. There is also a property to do this. So all values with "0" should
    print as "blank".

    Nico,

    Thanks very much taking the time to answer this for me.

    Yes, I came to the conclusion that I would have to use a DBmemo after a
    bit of experimentation.

    Thanks ag…

    Nico,

    Thanks.

    I was just thinking from a developer standpoint also...

    That is, if a detail band had a "setting" that both the developer and
    end-user could set to alter…

    Nico,

    This works...However, I'm wondering if there is a way to turn this
    on/off to adapt to any reports a user is working with....And, also to
    handle any number of subreports?

    You are welcome, now that I've got things running …
  • By coincidence I ran into the same problem today, only I'm using ODAC from
    CRLab with the NET option (I do not like the overhead in installing and
    maintaining all those external components/dll's etc. on all those clients).

  • Hi Nico,

    My interpretation was wrong, sorry. So I have to show my grid on detail band
    and I tried to calculate the position of detail band in screen pixels.But
    the result of height is 89 pixels only (the width is wrong, too). I …

  • Thanks for all.

  • Thanks Nico, but I guess you're talking about delphi sintax code. I mean it
    in the reportbuilder code (which is the same), but I've created an end-user
    application in which I'm working at. I hope you excuse me if I don't

  • I'm sorry Nard, I posted the message in different Newsgroups categories
    because I got a little bit confused to which one posting it.

    Thanks.

    Fabio.

  • Actually you seem to be right. ShowData seems to have no effect, the items
    still show data instead of names.

  • My mistake, I don't think I was clear enough (It's getting late here). We
    are using ReportExplorer, and we are using an extra field in the database to
    mark the reports read only. So we are using ReportBuilders build in saving
