"R&R PDF Export" is now an available printer selection in Rapid Runner. When selected, the Destination automatically defaults to Print to File and requires the entry of an output filename.
In runtime, the interactive printer selection dialog now includes a print to file checkbox so that users can choose to create PDF files at runtime without needing to explicitly preset an output filename.
Version 10+ allows you to report on XML data using the Data Direct ODBC driver and the Result Set browser now allows you to output report data to XML from within the report designer. This XML output creates a well-formed XML document whose internal schema conforms to the W3C XSD standard. To export report data to XML you simply launch the Result Set Browser from Report Designer and select the SaveResultSet button. Then in the Save as Type drop down list you select the choice XML.
At the request of many users, Version 10+ allows reports containing saved Mail Option settings to be automatically run and sent to email recipients without needing to open the Report Designer and manually select Send via MAPI checkbox. This functionality is implemented using runtime executable but requires an installed copy of the Report Designer to be present. The command line to output a report to MAPI is:
For Xbase
RRWRUN.EXE /M<reportname>
For SQL
RSWRUN.EXE /M<reportname>
A new No margins/page breaks checkbox has been added to the text export dialog.
You can check this box if you want to create a text file with no top or left margin and no blank lines between pages.
The third party library that is used to render graphic image files has been changed from Snowbound to Lead Tools. As a result, the file snbd6w9s.dll (installed in the /windows/system directory) has been replaced by the following files that are installed in the R&R program directory.
LTKRN13N.DLL
LTFIL13N.DLL
LTDIS13N.DLL
LFCMP13N.DLL
LFBMP13N.DLL
LFTIF13N.DLL
LFGIF13N.DLL
LFFAX13N.DLL
There are no user interface changes within the Report Designer as a result of the change and existing reports containing images will run successfully. For runtime developers, the above files should be distributed in place of the older snbd6w9s.dll.
