TablePrint (Function) In french: TableImprime Prints the content of the specified Table control without having to create a report based on the Table control. An AAF (Automatic Application Feature) allows the user to directly print the content of the Table control (see Automatic menu of Table controls). TablePrint is used to configure the print: - Ability to specify the additional elements to print (date, number of pages, ...).
- It is possible to use iDestination to configure the print destination.
// Specify the print parameters
// Print in a PDF called table.pdf, in portrait mode
// Change the destination and the orientation.
iDestination(iGenericPDF, "./table.pdf")
iParameter(iOrientation, iOrientation_Portrait)
// Print the Table control (without option, everything is displayed)
TablePrint(TABLE_MyTable)
// Specify the print parameters
// Print in a PDF called table.pdf, in portrait mode
// Forces the Table control print AAF to use
// the parameters of the Table control (cell color, etc.)
ConfigureAAF(aafPrintReportOnTable, 1)
// Change the destination and the orientation.
iDestination(iGenericPDF, "./table.pdf")
iParameter(iOrientation, iOrientation_Portrait)
// Print the Table control (without option, everything is displayed)
TablePrint(TABLE_MyTable)
// Specify the print parameters
// Print in a PDF called table.pdf, in portrait mode
// Forces the Table control print AAF to use
// the parameters of the Table control (cell color, etc.)
AAFConfigure(aafPrintReportOnTable, 1)
// Change the destination and the orientation.
iDestination(iGenericPDF, "./table.pdf")
iParameter(iOrientation, iOrientation_Portrait)
// Print the Table control (without option, everything is displayed)
TablePrint(TABLE_MyTable)
