  Try this:
  

    begin
      frxReport1.AddFunction( 'Procedure MyFunction' );
      frxReport1.OnUserFunction := frxReport1UserFunction; 
    end;
  

    function TForm2.frxReport1UserFunction(const MethodName: string; var Params: Variant): Variant;
    begin
      Result := -1;
      if (MethodName = 'MyFunction') then
      begin
        showmessage('Hello World');
        Result := 0;
      end;
    end;

  Thanks Madas
  I see you add a MethodName check and a Result value
  
  I tried your suggestion but I'm afraid it is still not working.
  
  Do you have any other Idea ?

    if not frxReport1.PrepareReport then
    begin
      Sleep(250);
      Application.ProcessMessages;

        raise Exception.Create('Druckdokument konnte nicht geladen werden!');
    end;
  end;
  
  procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

    frxReport1.DesignReport;

    Result := -1;

  end;
  
  end.
  

  
  once more. try this. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> i think the user function must be real function and not a procedure. if the user fucntion is a procedure you cant drag this "function" on to the report within the designer. greetings.[/img]

  Thanks Madas,
  
  I'm using a TfrxPreview to Show the report.
  
  it is on the TfrxPreview that the UserFunction does not work after showing Designer.
  
  
  Sorry I didn't mention this, I didn't know that a report can be shown without a preview [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> PS : the UserFunction will work if after I close the designer, I call "frxReport1.ShowReport();" The question is that I would like to skip "frxReport1.ShowReport();" because re-loading the report take sometime.[/img]
