Hi Guys,

   Anybody successfully got the Current DBISAM & FastReports versions working
together successfully and properly in C/S mode?  I'm having a devil of a time
getting it sorted.  Hopefully it is me rather then FastReports....

Regards,

Ian

Ian,

No problems here.. working as expected.

What problems are you having?
Are you using the C/S version of FR3 as well? (Not required, but I am able to use either w/ no problem)

Regards,
Scott.

Let me say up front I am a novice at FastReports and really this should be in
the FR NG but I havn't been able to get assistance there.  My apologies to the
non-FR people.

Firstly, no, I am not using the C/S version, one step at a time...

I'm trying to create two environments,  1. A standalone report creater/editor
based on the 'enduser' examples for the 'administrator' to use to create/edit
report definitions to be called from an End User application, as well as any
other ad-hoc reports that management may require.  2. End user ability from the
main application to be able to print an Invoice, Quote, Parts Order, etc, using
the report definitions previously created.  In the case of say the Invoice &
Quote I need to tell the report the specific job # to print.

I seem to have 1. sorted OK now but in try to achieve 2. I keep running into
road blocks.  I put some code into the report that I thought would set the
filter when the report is run..

begin

Invoices.Filter := 123456;
Invoices.Filtered := True;

end.

This is a precursor to having a variable in the report that can be set by the
Enduser program to print a specific invoice #.

However when I either compile in the code page or attempt to run the report I
get an Unknown type: 'TfrxDBI4Table' error message.

Now, I acknowledge I could be doing this all around the wrong way and am happy
to be corrected.

Any assistance to get to the end goal appreciated.

Regards & TIA,

Ian



It took me ages to get it all to work as just a report writer which I can now
do reasonably comfortably.  Of course a report on it's own is only usefull when

Hi Ian,


I use also DBIsam and Fastreport, but I don't use the DBIsam user
components. So I have only an tip:


Look in the ..

unit frxDBIRTTI;


constructor TFunctions.Create;

...
with AddClass(TfrxDBI4Table, '???') do
       AddProperty('Table', 'TTable', GetProp, nil);
...


unit frxDBIComponents;

...

initialization

...

frxObjects.RegisterObject1(TfrxDBI4Table, nil, '', '???', 0, 38);

...


Regards,

Ralf

Hi

Don't know what happened but my post does not appear.

have you been able to resolve the problem Undeclared Identifier:frxDBdataset1 as I am having the same problem and does not have a solution to it yet. If you find a work around please let
me know.

As per my reply in the FR NG, can you please provide me with a cut-down
