After much digging I discovered that the Metafile error I get with QR is caused because the Tstream.position property is not large enough. It is of type LongInt. I need it to be INT64. What is the best way to accomplish this? I'm assuming that changing it in classes.pas is not an option...
Thanks for the code. I follow your logic and I spent an hour or so playing with it. My situation is a little different though and I think that because it is different, your code won't work for me. I'd appreciate any feedback.
I am using a custom preview and a query result. As a result, I...
I used paradox tables for years. As long as they don't grow too large (~100mb) and that the app isn't multi-user networked, it suited our purposes. We did find it a little flakey around corrupt files but it was mostly in networked environments. also, stay away from autoinc fields.

Thanks for getting back to me Anthony.
The customer has no plans to print the entire report. I'm sure they just want to see sections of it. We had to use a custom preview to allow the user to jump to a particular page...I think it is crazy to produce this large a report...but I'm not the...
Make sure your temp directory as it is setup in the windows environment is not too long.
Make sure you have sufficent rights to the temporary file directory.
one last thing...Do you have an image in your report? We had a logo. We removed it as well as some white space and it reduced our temporary file size a great deal.
The temporary file does get created in the windows temp file. It has a qr*.tmp extension. If you choose to turn on compression in the qr object, it will take forever to run the same report. What version of QR are you using? I was just out to their site and saw that they are using 3.08. I'm...
Yes, QR does produce a temporary file. It grows quite large. For instance, the report I am dealing with now (trying to make work) has 1.4million records and QR produces a temporary file > 6GB. Yes 6Gigabytes! Make sure you have lots of disk space. Make sure your temporary quickreport files...
Using D5 with Quick Reports 3.06. I am producing a report from 1.9million detailed records. I am using a custom preview and I use the qrprinter.preview ftn to preview the report. I produces on the screen fine. However, I can not scroll page to page...the cpu goes to 100% and never changes...
