TRaveMemo Multiline Text?

[MvT]

Hi There,

I am trying to build a rave report without the designer.
Got a small example from Nevrona's site which looks helpful.

One question is:
How do you add multiline text to a TRaveMemo's text property?
I have tried the following but it prints the text on one line:

TRaveMemo.Text := 'Line 1' + #13#10 + 'Line 2';

Please help.

BTW: I am using Delphi 7 Ent with standard shipped Rave components.

you must draw self each line

use RaveMemo.GetNextLine in some loop ..

Hi,

What Karol said, is not exactly true. I it only true if you need to have
finer control over the printing of the memo. Please have a look at either
TBaseReport.PrintMemo or TMemoBuf.PrintLines. RAVE will automaticall do the
wrapping based on the left and right bounds that you have set on the memo.

I agree with you this is better in same situation
but without any control of printing :/

Hello Karol,

It depends on what sort of control that you need ;-)

Usually I find that using these 2 methods gives me all the control that I
need....MvT's requirement was to simply print the Memo (at least no other
requirements were stated), and I have an aversion to writing any more code
than I need too :-)
