Relationship between Rows and Records

Hi!

I am just trying out the Report Control and I was not able to figure out the releationship between rows and records.

As I understood:
- Each row has ONE record.
- Each records holds on or more RecordItems representing the cells of each row.
- There is no Add methode for rows. Rows are added by using ReportControl.Records.Add(...)

What is the reason for the seperation of rows and records? Is there an easy and quick way to find the correspondig row object to a record object without searching all rows?

I have used the following procedure to add a row/record. This works fine but both messages show that ReportControl.Rows is still empty. How can that be?

        public void AddItem(Object obj) {
            MessageBox.Show(ReportControl.Rows.Count.ToString()); // --> 0

            ReportRecord newRecord = ReportControl.Records.Add();
            SetRecordData(newRecord, obj);

            MessageBox.Show(mailListReport.Rows.Count.ToString()); // --> 0
        }

you can have rows that don't have records - e.g. group header rows.

"Finds row corresponded with specified record" - ReportRow* FindRow(IReportRecord* Record)

CXTPReportRow* CXTPReportRows::Find(CXTPReportRecord* pRecord) {

for (int i = 0; i < (int) m_arrRows.GetSize(); i++) {

if (m_arrRows.GetAt(i)->GetRecord() == pRecord) return m_arrRows.GetAt(i); }

return 0; }

"Finds row corresponded with specified record (throughout the tree)"  - ReportRow* FindRowInTree(IReportRecord* Record)

CXTPReportRow* CXTPReportRows::FindInTree(CXTPReportRecord* pRecord) {

for (int i = 0; i < (int) m_arrRows.GetSize(); i++) {

if (m_arrRows.GetAt(i)->GetRecord() == pRecord)  return m_arrRows.GetAt(i);

if (m_arrRows.GetAt(i)->HasChildren()) {

CXTPReportRow* pRow = m_arrRows.GetAt(i)->GetChilds()->FindInTree(pRecord);

if (pRow) return pRow; }

}

return 0; }
