iPrintDuplicate (Function)

In french: iImprimeDuplicata

Prints a duplicate copy of a report. This duplicate copy can be printed:

in the report viewer,
on the printer,
in a file (pdf, ...).

This duplicate copy was created:

explicitly by iDestination (associated with the iDuplicate constant).
directly from the report viewer (duplicate print option or iParameterDuplicate before starting the report viewer).

Remark: It is possible to retrieve the list of duplicates created for the current print run using the iLastFile function..

Example

// Création du duplicata
iDestination(iDuplicate, "C:\Temp\MonDuplicata.dpl")
iPrintReport(ETAT_Facture)

// Impression du duplicata dans le visualisateur de rapports
iDestination(iViewer)
iPrintDuplicate("C:\Temp\MonDuplicata.dpl")

// Paramétrage des duplicata réalisés depuis le visualisateur de rapports
iParameterDuplicate(iDplPrintout, "C:\Temp", "MonDuplicata_%d_%h", "MMJJAAAA", "HHMMSS")

// Impression d'un duplicata via le visualisateur de rapports
iDestination(iViewer)
iPrintReport(ETAT_Facture)

// Parcours des duplicata créés automatiquement depuis le visualisateur de rapports
sListeDuplicata is string
sListeDuplicata = iLastFile(iDuplicate)
sDuplicata is string
sDuplicata = ExtractString(sListeDuplicata, firstRank, CR)
WHILE sDuplicata <> EOT
	// Impression du duplicata
	iPrintDuplicate(sDuplicata)
	// Passage au duplicata suivant
	sDuplicata = ExtractString(sListeDuplicata, nextRank, CR)
END

<Result>: Boolean

True if the duplicate has been printed,
False otherwise. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo.

<Duplicate file>: Character string

<Password>: Optional string or Secret string

Password of duplicate file to print. This password must be identical to the one used when creating the duplicate copy.

To learn more about secret strings and how to use the vault, see Secret string vault.

Remarks

Common errors

The common errors that can occur are as follows:

90025: Wrong password. The password used to create the duplicate file differs from the password used to open the duplicate file.
90026: Wrong format. The format of the duplicate file is incorrect. It is corrupt.
90027: Version too recent. The duplicate file was generated with a WINDEV or WEBDEV version that is more recent that the version used to read the duplicate file.

Limitations

iEndPrinting must not be used with iPrintDuplicate.
The print functions must not be used when printing a duplicate. For example, the following code must not be used:
```
iDestination(iViewer)
iPrint("Ceci est interdit")
iPrintDuplicate("C:\Temp\MonDuplicata.dpl")
```
