Task: you have to generate simple Excel report with customers list (we`ll use 'customers' table from 'DBDEMOS' Delphi sample database). 1) Since 'customers' dataset structure are known you may create the report template using MS Excel: <#date1> tag will be replaced with current date. See ARExcelMarkup.doc from component package for full list of template markup abilities. Save this template (simple Excel document) as 'template-customers.xls'. 2) Drop Button1 component, Table1 component on form (DatabaseName='DBDEMOS', TableName='Customers.db', Active=True) 3) Drop ARExcelReport component on form, set Filename='template-customers.xls'. 4) Add DataSetList Item linked to Table1 and assign 'Customers' name to it:
This DSName 'CUSTOMERS' you`ll be able to use in report template as Table1 alias. 5) Add Button OnClick handler:
6) Run application and press 'Preview' button. Report is complete! Also you can use template-specific datasets defined in DataPool object in report template. You can use ARExcelReport.CustTagValues as well as other datasets fields within SQL statments in DataPool. See Demo projects from component package to find out how it works. |
