External error?
Hello,
I have a very strange problem.
I have a report that about once a day (both at customer side and on my computer) gives the error "external error".
When this happens, the data in the MasterData is completely empty.
The strange thing is that it happens about once in 100 tries. There is no relationship with the data because if the customer reprints the same data again it would be good.
I think Fr doesn't free the memory sometimes after itself.
The other error is (also rarely and randomly) that sometimes some memos don't show the data, instead they show the memo text instead for the customer e.g. [<frx1DataSet."quantity">*frx1DataSet."netprice"> ] instead of let's say 6800.
This is really embarassing, I can't debug because it is so seldom, but the customer curses all the time and tries to threaten me that he will make me pay his loss.

Hello,
Thank you for the answer. Today I downloaded the newest version (since I used the version of Nov.2010), hopefully it will fix the problem.
If it'll occur again I will let you know.
Hello,
I uploaded a Zip file with a screenshot and an fp3 file. I hope you can find something useful. As I said before, it appears randomly.
By the way how can I open an fp3 file?
I have uploaded it again. It might have been damaged it during the prev. upload.
This forum system damages it. You can download it from http://invitel.hu/csillagzs/fr_error.zip
Hello,
I wrote previously that the correct file is at http://invitel.hu/csillagzs/fr_error.zip
I tested it, it works.
In pseudo code instead of
for number of reports
.. frxReport.Print;
I would change to
for each report
frxReport.Create
frxReport.LoadFromFile/stream
frxReport.Print
frxReport.Free
If it is a memory leak then the create/destroy may just release the memory.
