Hi All,

In my application I use the DevExpress SpreadSheet component. The

application has a collection of seperate RV documents that need to be

combined and printed. I do not need to embed these spreadsheets directly

in a RVEdit, but I need to be able to print them. I do this as follows:

I create a new RV and write all the documents to this RV, spreadsheets

are converted to RV tables. This works fine (apart from the fact that I

need to print spreadsheets in landscape, see my previous post).

But I am worried about resources and performance: there may be up to 20

or so quite large spreadsheets, and using tables results in very large

documents and a very noticable delay on generating them. So:

- are tables really meant to handle this?

- has anybody else have experience with RV + DevExpress Spreadsheet?

I could go a different route by using the DevExpress Printing System

(which we have). But this would require RV printing to be handled by the

Printing System. It directly supprots TRichEdit ( and many other

components), but not TRichView. Anybody done this? And Sergey, have you

considered supporting the DevExpress Printing System?

All the best,

Robert
