worksheet to change report body

Admin
Hello sir,
There is one of my old project on Indusoft 8.0 where the report is generated by using the internal reportgenerator. Here I have to change the header name of the Report. I have checked the RTF file which creates the report, but not found the header name of the report. But while generating report the header names get appear on the report. even I have checked /config folder where RTF file was stored, but the files doesnt contains the header name as well as footer of report.
Please help me where I can find the main body of the report so that i can set its report format

  • Hello,

    Without seeing the entire project it is difficult to say. What type of report is generated (.txt, .rtf, .pdf, direct to printer, etc.)
    It is possible to generate a report without using the built in reports function (using FileWrite or VBA FileSystemObject).
    It is also possible to have a hybrid system where portions of the report are generated manually (FileWrite or VBA FileSystemObject) and portions generated automatically with the report function.
    Is the Disk Append box checked?
    Is there more than one Report in the Reports tree?
    The handling of the RTF option by InduSoft is weak. The report is generated using text format unless there is an RTF file present. Once you click on the 'Edit RTF file' button, an RTF file is created if one does not already exist. The report generator will use the RTF file until it is manually deleted. There should be a check box that allows you to configure whether it uses text format or RTF.
