  • G'day, Have you tried at "https://www.fast-report.com/public_download/docs/FRVCL/online/en/index.html"? Cheers, Paul
  • G'day, Without seeing your code, I think you need to set up a "global variable" that you add to the group footer in the "before print" event. You can update the value in the "after print" event. If your report code is &…
  • G'day Gordon, Do you have more than one IDE version installed on the same machine? If so, does code from there still work? Perhaps this is a perennial problem with legacy DCU and BPL files (for Reports and/or Script) being present after your GetIt u…
  • G'day Nathan, As i said the TfrxXLSexport component worked "out of the box" meaning I didn't set any Properties to special values via tge Object Inspector. And yes ours was dropped on toa Data Module like yours. Did you change any Properti…
  • G'day Nathan, First point: have you dropped an instance of the TfrxXLSexport Component on your Form (or within the scope of the code)? If so, when you click on the "Save" Button on the Report Preview Form you should see: https://forum.fa…
  • G'day Jnr, See my response to your other post on this topic. 🤓 Cheers, Paul
  • G'day Jnr, I don't have current information on this (we stopped trying to use FR Docx Export a while back). The reason then was that the process relied on the creation of tables, and these had complex columns and merged cells which defied any form o…
  • G'day "Input", Have you tried setting "Embedded Fonts" Option on the outputted PDF File? https://forum.fast-report.com/en/uploads/614/ORU12IZ9T7FK.png Cheers, Paul
  • G'day KMR, I don't know if you have already solved this, but we had something similar happening a while back. For reasons I have now forgotten the frxXXX.dcu and fsXXX.dcu Files were being rebuilt with one of our Application Programmes. So there …
  • G'day again Dave, OK so this "nagged at me" so much I recreated our "prototype". The attached files are the Project, Form and "dummy" FR3 files I used. Running the Test Programme you can choose to Export Directly, or …
  • G'day Dave, Probably the best way... We put our code together 8 or 9 years ago, and I couldn't find the prototype we built. It was a simple Form that loaded three FR3 files and then either displayed a Preview or Export to PDF (depending on which But…
  • G'day Dave, It would really help if we could see what you are doing that isn't working for you. For example a sample project... You are right it is possible and relatively straightforward. Our major App has several "composite reports" tha…
  • G'day Bob, I am not sure where you want to use the Title, but if you are like us you probably want to see it: in the Report Header of your previewed / printed Reports on the Caption of the Preview Form as the default File Name when you save / expo…
  • G'day Tom, Your post is on a similar theme to one a couple of months back. Basically, we gave up using FastReports to export to anyrhing other than PDF because of its "quirky" treatment of formatting. Instead we use RAD Studio's ISAM funct…
  • G'day, I have not needed to do this myself, but I suspect that your code is in the "wrong" Event Method. It is probably "too late" in the sequence to do what you want. Have you tried the Report's "OnBeginDoc" Event M…
  • G'day Dot-Matrix Printer Users I don't know if this will help you, but... The Component TfrxDMPCommand is declared in the Unit frxDMPClass.pas (.dcu). Have you checked that this is present for your installation? With FastReport Vcl Enterprise 202…
  • G'day Siegbert, This one might be beyond the User Cimmunity! Have you raised a Support Ticket? Cheers, Paul
  • G'day, Charts in FastReport are provided by Steema TeeChart. They have documetation and tutorials available. have a look at: http://www.teechart.net/docs/TeeChartVCLReference.htm The starting point is to open the Design "Wizard" for your C…
  • 😁
  • G'day Mirco, A Test Project I made (from your instructions) using Delphi / Pascal works as required. Both GIF and PNG Files are exported AOK. We are using RAD Studio 11.3 / FastReport Enterprise v2023.1.3 on Windows 11. That spelling error in the…
  • G'day, I can't help with the specific error message (I didn't find it in a quick search of the source code). But one thing worth checking is if there are any frx.dcu files (and maybe fs.dcu too) on your system path from earlier instalations. If so d…
  • G'day Gregor, I don't know if it helps, but we went through a similar exercise (with older products) six years ago, needing to start each sub-report on an odd-numbered page, and to display "Page n of mm" in the Page Footer. The thread is …
  • G'day, First questions: When you installed the Trial were you given any options to choose from? Did the installation process add the frxADO2?.bpl and frxADO2?.dcp Files to the "LibD2?x64\" and "LibD2?\" sub-directories of the Pa…
  • G'day PK, Sorry I don't have a prototype to hand (we set this up in 2015 so all the original things have been "archived"), However I can do better than that and point you to the 2014 article that helped me get my head around this in the fi…
  • G'day Phil, Away from my desk right now, so I can't experiment. What you "thought" is my understanding too. I assume that "Detail2" is linked to "Childband" and is set up to resize if its collection of "memos"…
  • G'day PK, I don't know what your requirements are, but the "Export to CSV" Component like the others (e.g. "Export to Word") are very sensitive to the format of the report, and will insert cells in imitation of the designed repor…
  • .. back again ... I just did a test on an existing Report that first Previews the Report and then lets the User choose to save it / print it etc. The good news is that the OnAfterPrintReport Event only fires after the User chooses to Print the Repor…
  • G'day Markus, I haven't tested this out, but... Have you tried the OnAfterPrintReport Event. A quick check of the documentation didn't make it clear what the difference might be, but the Name looks promising... Cheers, Paul
  • G'day, I haven't used this component myself, but I did find this post on the Forums that might help you. https://www.fast-report.com/en/blog/show/master-detai-report-vb6/ I realise it is using VB but you might get some ideas... Cheers, Paul
