Hello I try change hightlight properties form delphi source:

procedure TForm96.frxReport1BeforePrint(Sender: TfrxReportComponent);
var
oMemo: TfrxMemoView;
begin
If Pos( 'MEMO',UpCase( Form96.frxReport1.CurObject ) ) <> 0 Then Begin
oMemo := TfrxMemoView( Form96.frxReport1.FindObject( Form96.frxReport1.CurObject ) );
oMemo.Highlight.Font.Name := Form3.aSystem[33]; <<<not work
oMemo.Highlight.Color := clRed; <<<not work
oMemo.Font.Name := Form3.aSystem[33]; <<<this work
End;
end;

why not happend? any ideas?
thanks.

this event fires for every object in the report
procedure TForm96.frxReport1BeforePrint(Sender: TfrxReportComponent);

the typical syntax would be
begin
if sender.name = 'Memo1' then
with tfrxmemoview(sender) do // cast sender
begin
set props here
end;
end;

if you turn on auto code completion
you will find all the props available and their required types when you pause after a dot.

Ishould have said
this event fires for every object in the report so you are better to doit where
you load the report.
sample
procedure TForm1.Button7Click(Sender: TObject);
var

LFXMCOM:TfrxMemoView;

begin
frxReport4.Clear;
frxreport4.LoadFromFile('testHighlight.fr3');
lfxmcom := frxreport4.FindObject('Memo1') as tfrxmemoview;
lfxmcom.Highlight.Condition := '<Line> mod 2';
lfxmcom.Highlight.Font.Name := 'Arial Black';
lfxmcom.Highlight.Font.Style := [fsBold];
frxreport4.ShowReport;
end;
