Fortes4Lazarus, is there a way to save a report outside the executable ?

Just to avoid to recompile the entire program if you only need to change something in a report...

Thanks, but it doesn't compile at least on linux 

fpc 3.0.0 lazarus 1.4.4 svn 51570 built with fpcup.

Code: [Select]

RLXLSXFileFormat.pas(497,3) Warning: Conversion between ordinals and pointers is not portable
RLXLSXFileFormat.pas(497,23) Warning: Conversion between ordinals and pointers is not portable
RLXLSXFileFormat.pas(497,3) Error: Argument cannot be assigned to

As I'm not interested in xlsx filter, I commented out the offending code and succeeded in compiling and installing.

By the way, it seems that the new version doesn't answer my original question, i.e. is there a way to save/load the report in a file so that it can be distributed along with the executable and not embedded in the executable ?

Furthermore, I've found the barcode's rendering is worse and RLReport1.Preview(); raises an exception...

Lastly, the best code without documentation is useful only to those who wrote it

R: it is not possible the report file is embedded in the executable.

Furthermore, I've found the barcode's rendering is worse and RLReport1. Preview (); raises an exception.
R: Please report this problem in the github project.

I have a file of help than this at the address below:
