Printing Report from .csv file

SK2014

Hi,

I would like to create a report where the Master Data is in the database but all the detail data are in a series of .txt files and .csv files.
I do not want to load all this data into the DB just to print the report.
How can I do this?

Yes you can use an frxuserdataset component
you will need to write external code to control movement in the dataset
see the various demos in the demo folder

Thanks, that worked.
Is it possible to put the frxUserDataset onto the Data page of the report instead of the Delphi form?
I would like to keep all the datasets inside of the report otherwise I would have hundreds of frxUserdatasets on the form that I use for generating reports.

No, you can use TfrxUSerDataset in the Delphi only
If you want to use internal dataset - use TfrxADODatabase (with ODBC Microsoft Access Text driver) and TfrxADOTable/TfrxADOQuery
