How to create a memo and assign to a band at runtime?
« on: September 15, 2017, 10:29:56 pm »
Hi All,

I want to add  an Overlay to an existing complex report at runtime. The below code works but don't know how to specific explicitly the owner band of the memo.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. var
  2.   b:TfrBandView;
  3.   m:TfrMemoView;
  4.  
  5. begin
  6.   b:=TfrBandView.Create(MyReport.Pages[0]);
  7.   b.CreateUniqueName;
  8.   b.BandType:=btOverlay;
  9.   b.SetBounds(0,30,0,50);
  10.  
  11.   m:=TfrMemoView.Create(MyReport.Pages[0]);
  12.   m.CreateUniqueName;
  13.   m.SetBounds(30,40,50,20);
  14.   m.Memo.Text:='Memo1';

Bands do not own objects or parent them they choose the controls that are placed on top of them at design time. So make sure the setbounds call places it on top of the band you want.
