How do I access a report's description (particularly the description, but also the last modified date).

frxReport1.GetDescription returns "Report object".

    assuming you have a report definition loaded or are building from code

    frxreport1.reportoptions.description
    suggest you read the programmer,s manual on how to access objects from delphi code
    the users manual as how to work within the report.

    Thanks for the solution

    A search for "description" doesn't find anything. Perhaps it's the help file that needs updating ?

    My program has a TListBox in which I list the available reports. There's a View button and a Design button. Each of them loads the report from file, then either shows the report or designs it. All OK. But if I view first, then design (or the other way round), I either get a blank report or an access error.

    did you place a designer component on the delphi form or in clude the frxdesigner unit in the uses clause?

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.
