Render NDR to Preview

QUESTION:

I have previously saved NDR files and I want to preview them again. How would I do that?

SOLUTION:

The following code starts with having a RvSystem component on your form named RvSystem1.

Be advised that both "DoNativeOutput" and "RenderObject" are not required and need not be set.

Delphi:

Procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

Begin

RvSystem1.DefaultDest := rdPreview;

RvSystem1.SystemFiler.FileName := 'Test.NDR';

// RvSystem1.SystemSetups := RvSystem1.SystemSetups - [ssAllowSetup];

RvSystem1.Execute;

ShowMessage('Preview created');

End;

C++Builder:

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)

{

RvSystem1->DefaultDest = rdPreview;

RvSystem1->SystemFiler->FileName = "Test.NDR";

// RvSystem1->SystemSetups = RvSystem1->SystemSetups - [ssAllowSetup];

RvSystem1->Execute;

ShowMessage("Preview created");

}
