prepared report to and from stream?

Is there any way to work with the prepared report as a stream without saving to a file and reloading?

I need to be able to base64 the prepared report and save/retreive it from a database for export into different formats.

    Hi Klint!

    If You mean You wanna save the prepared pages as graphic stream You can do that by calling the TFRReport.EMFPages.SaveToStream(aStream:TStream) method.

    ok, got that going. have to remember to rewind the stream after filling it.

    ms := tmemorystream.create;
    frReport1.loadfromfile('areport.frf');
    frReport1.PrepareReport;
    frReport1.EMFPages.savetostream(ms);
    ms.seek(0,soFromBeginning);
    frReport2.EMFPages.loadfromstream(ms);
    frReport2.ShowPreparedReport;

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.
