Runtime filter

Post by DCSykes » Mon Jan 14, 2002 11:00 am

I am calling the R&R runtime from a Clipper program. The report request screen in my application asks the user a series of questions and uses that to build the RI_Filter string. I set RI_Query to "O" and the report runs great.____But (you knew there would be a "but", didn^t you) - I wanted to let the user add additional conditions to the filter. So I set RI_Query to "?" to bring up the R&R query builder. The problem is it no longer uses the RI_Filter string I pass to it. It starts with the condition saved with the report. Is there any way I can get it to use the filter I^m passing it, plus allow the end user to add additional conditions?____Thanks!____Dennis Sykes

It is indeed an either/or choice.__If you want to allow the user to select and append to your RI_FILTER conditions, you would need manage the user selection and then add that to the RI_FILTER expression.____Kathleen__R&R Support
