Grid Report Link - The 'Invalid class typecast' error occurs when previewing a report if a sorted grid column with the in-place ProgressBar editor whose Properties.ShowTextStyle property is set to a value other than cxtsPosition

created 12 years ago

We have discovered that when we sort the grid by a column that is set to (TcxProgressBarProperties) if we then use the ExpressPrinting system to print preview the grid the following exception is raised by the IDE

Project Application.exe raised exception class EInvalidCast with message 'Invalid class typcast'

The exception is then swallowed and not presented to the end user, however the resulting preview window will be completely empty and you won't be able to print what you intended.

I have attached a sample application that demonstrates this, just run it and click the button on the form.

Everything works fine when you are sorted by the other column.
