I just started using Rpt Designer 2.5 the past few weeks with no training and have several questions.
please keep answers as simple as possible as my experience is limited.
1.) I created a Repeating Frame,
with fields with in the frame. On the report, I want to remove the
border
around both the Frame and fields. I tried the following
srw.attr.mask
:= srw.borderwidth_attr;
srw.attr.borderwidth := 0;
srw.set_attr(0, srw.attr);
In the format trigger for the field, but it did nothing. Ideas ?
2.) How do I create a field
on the report that has nothing to do with any table field, and how
do I manipulate its value in a trigger ?
3.) In my query for the report,
I am retrieving a table field called full_name and it goes into
a report field called name. In some circumstances I want to change the
value that shows up
in the name field on the report. In the format trigger I tried :
:name := 'Test';
:FULL_NAME := 'Test
Name Change';
The :NAME , gets a "Bind variable NAME undefined" message.
The :FULL_NAME, gets a "Read Only bind variable used in OUT or IN-OUT Context"
message.
4.) Any one know of a good technical book that has a Report Designer 2.5 section ?
