  • read answer to question 2.33 in faq.txt
  • did you place a shape component on the delphi form?
  • Maybe i'm tired to, didn't notice. BTW if you are trying to get rowtotals in a memo located on a cross footer intersecting a mdband you may have to use Sum function like the basic crossdemo [Sum([Cell])]
  • i assume the other design pages are related to the first page's data. set the dataset property of the report component to point to the dataset that everything is related to.
  • hi pete dont use sum function it is used for adding values in footers of rows above, and is usually used with extended syntax [Sum([v or dfldnme],bandname,1)] band name is the name of the databand as shown in object inspector. 1 is optional if u…
  • Hi since you don't have the demo i mentioned ,my fault, it doesn't come with free report, i'll try to work with you on the one you do. The difference between storing a report in dfm and storing ias an frf. if you store in dfm, you need 1 report c…
  • When store in dfm is false you are saving the report's design definition to a .frf file to show it you must use the loadfromfile method before calling show report. ie frreport1.loadfromfile('fullpathandreportname.frf'); frreport1.showreport;
  • You can add lines to the report and change their properties visible,length at run time from obp event of band or you can use memo's frame and control which part of the frame is visible, even to the point of adding blank memos with just frames turne…
  • when a page is first created fr picks up on the default page size of the default printer and the size is usually, IIRC, the printable area dimensions any how screen 800x600 is usually 96 pixels per inch. fr is not perfect wysiwig there is roundin…
  • ok since you are now seeing something in the memo,so work on the apostrophes you'll eventually get it right. you should see [Date] including brackets in the memo and when report is run the date will be subed for the the variable.
  • I meant to add my own prefrenece is not to use a pageheader but to set top margin of designpage. less drift from rounding errors on long page runs. procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var // declare variables of these types v: Tf…
  • no there is not, all values for heights etc., are integer in pixels. default so you must calculate this yourself. and pass in the required value.
  • You dont want it added to the script, you want it added to the memoviews memo this is the way it would appear in the memo of the memoview(textobject) in a design window, if you built the contents using the expression builder. [FORMATDATETIME('d…
  • Hi this may or may not help you out 1 fr2.# is not thread safe. 2 when you compiled your frlib did you modify fr_printers.pas to include the define prn reset define it is turned off by default.
  • I already gave you the way to change font's in a running report no external code is needed. however if you want to modify objects from external code you must get syntax correct and in properplaces. ie code to load report use findobject method to …
  • Hi Pete do you have the demo i mentioned. if the answer is yes try this with the demo select the table object open the fields editor for the table delete the fields. now set the table component's databasename to your dbname and the tablename to…
  • The code you show does not relate to the question you asked! What are you actually trying to do add a memo to a prepared report's emfpage(s) or add a memo to a report's designpage from external appcode?
  • hi pete i dont remember what report demos are available in free report but see if you have the printable2 demo. when using with a cross data band in conjunction with a master databand you need to connect mdband to table/query through frdbdatas…
  • it is just a calculation value. in the memo you wish to display the %qty value [qty]/[totqty*100] in the above example we assume [qty] and [totqty] are variables with values. but they could also be datafields or expressions depending upon where …
  • The demos 13.frf is based on preset values in the datasource properties for the data band's for an example of how to use crosstab bands with a table or query for masterdata look at the printable2demo.
  • at designtime set the memos font properties to change in runtime depending on an expression you can either write code in obp event of band or memo or use conditional highlight prop to add expression and set colors or font props.
  • Or if you have saved files as an .frf you must load the file before calling show report. In future please post questions about free report to free report forum.
  • Create your own variables to use for display in memo's initialize to 0 at start of report title band or dialog page. reset to 0 where needed ie obp of pageheader band add values to variables in obp of mdband for running total in masterfooter mem…

  • Hi I just tried a dl and install and confirm error. will get back to you.
  • Hi Is this what you have placed in the memo of rich1. [AsaDMailInbound."MailInboundDetails"] or in the data field property.
  • Hi see reply to topic 990 further down the page you probably missed a call to frparsercalc() when you created your function lib.
  • The designer is global and only 1 per app is allowed. it will be dependant on what ever controls or additional librarys are installed. fr bde components etc. the approach i like is to copy the datamodule and make the designer a stand alone exe an…
  • AFAIK there is compatability problems with info power rtf.
  • check that you don't have the older version still installed in a different folder.
