Display the File name of the report?

Doug

Is it possible to access the filename of a report? Something like [self."filename"] and have it return "myReport.fr3".

Hello Doug,

I don't know whether that is the easiest way, but you could define a category and then a variable in the Report, e.g. Category "FromDelphi", Variable "RepName". From Delphi you then use the code:

frxRepRechnung.LoadFromFile('Rechnung.fr3');
   frxRepRechnung.Variables['RepName'] := ''''+frxRepRechnung.FileName+'''';
   frxRepRechnung.ShowReport;

In the report you can use the report variable and show it wherever you want.

Yes that may work.

IMHO:
Would also need to test the report to make sure the variable is there. This does not seem like best practice. I don't think Delphi should have to know or deal with variables in a report. Not the best encapsulation.

The filename of the report should be a property of the report.

How can I suggest that they add this property to the product?
