beginer problem: my report wont show!

Hi

I have just started to try and use free reports, I tried to follow the prntable demo and have a simple frreport with a page header band and some text. In my delphi project i have frreport1.showreport; but when i run my program and click on the button, there is a brief flicker of somthing but nothing appears.

Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks
Pete

    ah ha! I have found out.......

    for others who may want to know:

    I needed to set the storeInDFM property to 'TRUE'.

    Thanks anyway...

    Or if you have saved files as an .frf you must load the file before calling show report.
    In future please post questions about free report to free report forum.

    but nobody seems to reply to the questions in the free report forum!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
