Re: [DUG]: QuickReport - ForceNewPage on a Group

[Mark Howard]

Hello   What I have just tried is as follows:   procedure TLogDet1.QRGroup3BeforePrint(Sender: TQRCustomBand;   var PrintBand: Boolean); begin     QRGroup3.ForceNewPage := True;  if SkipSub1 then     begin       PrintBand := False;       SkipSub1 := False;     end; end; and I get the message:     "Undeclared identifier 'QRGroup3'"   What have I missed?   Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: David Brennan To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2000 11:26 PM Subject: Re: [DUG]: QuickReport - ForceNewPage on a Group i.e. QRGroup3.ForceNewPage := True;   You don't use Report.QRGroup3.ForceNewPage because QRGroup3 is actually a variable of the form (you will see it in the form definition above Private) instead of a property of the Report.   You probably could access the group through the Report if you wanted to but you wouldn't be using the name QRGroup3 (or whatever) - that is the name of the form level variable only.   David.

If you drop a TQRGroup onto a report and put my code     ForceNewPage := True; into the BeforePrint event, does it work? or is there some other blindingly obvious (to anyone else) reference that you have to put in front of it - such as     Report.QRGroup3.ForceNewPage := True; for example??

The bands all have the BeforePrint events. Now in your group's band there is the BeforePrint event you can use to set the property. I would expect that to work. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Howard Sent: Saturday, 23 September 2000 02:23 To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: Re: [DUG]: QuickReport - ForceNewPage on a Group Yes, that's what I would have expected. Or even set it for that Group in a BeforeReportPrint - but the problem that I have (and it probably is just me) is that there doesn't seem to be a TQRGroup defined in the TQReport class for me to set the property ForceNewPage property of.   If I try to do:     ForceNewPage := True;  in the BeforePrint event I get "Undeclared indentifier" So, I guess, what do I need to precede ForceNewPage with?   Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: Patrick Dunford To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2000 1:35 AM Subject: RE: [DUG]: QuickReport - ForceNewPage on a Group  I assume you would do this in the BeforePrint event handler -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Howard Sent: Friday, 22 September 2000 11:18 To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: [DUG]: QuickReport - ForceNewPage on a Group Hi guys   I'm wanting to conditionally set ForceNewPage to True on a Group in QuickReports. Can someone please post a short example of the code to do this.  I must be missing something basic.   Thanks   Mark
