Tabstops in Winprint

by Peter Bosch

Summary

If you use the DFWritePos Command you must always change a lot of code if you need to change your layout during development, because you often use the same position in Header, SubHeader and Body. With TabStops you only set them once in the Init-Section of the report and if they change you also only change them once. This has saved me a great deal of time.
