report with copies

Hello, i have a special Problem:

If i print a Report and the Report has copies (normal 4) then i need a different colored thicker Line on the left (Memo?) on each Report copy.

1 = original no color
2 = copy 1 = Color Blue
3 = copy 2 = Color Red
4 = copy 3 = Color Yellow

i tried width copyname# and it shows the right number of copy but the following doesn't work:
  if (Trim(<CopyName#>) = '0') or (Trim(<CopyName#>) = '1') then begin
    MemoKopienMarkierung.Color := clNone;                                                                                
  end              
  else if Trim(<CopyName#>) = '2' then begin
    MemoKopienMarkierung.Color := clBlue;
  end              
  else if Trim(<CopyName#>) = '3' then begin
    MemoKopienMarkierung.Color := clRed;                                                                              
  end              
  else if Trim(<CopyName#>) = '4' then begin
    MemoKopienMarkierung.Color := clYellow;                                                                              
  end;

    it is too late to modify the output of the report memo;s properties.
  • I've thought of me, but how can i do what i need?

    this will depend upon wether or not you are printing from the preview window or handling from code without previewing.

    You may change page's content depend of CopyName value in the TfrxReport.OnPrintPage event

    procedure TDlg_Rechnung.frxReportVorschauPrintPage(Page: TfrxReportPage;
      CopyNo: Integer);
    var MyMemoView : TFrxMemoView;
    begin
      inherited;
      MyMemoView := TfrxMemoView(Page.FindObject('KopienMarkierung'));
      if MyMemoView <> nil then begin
        MyMemoView.Text := '';
        if (CopyNo = 0) or (copyNo = 1) then MyMemoView.Color := clNone
        else if CopyNo = 2 then MyMemoView.Color := clBlue
        else if CopyNo = 3 then MyMemoView.Color := clRed
        else if CopyNo = 4 then MyMemoView.Color := clYellow;
      end;
    end;

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.
