When I run the report viewer (R&R SQL Ver 8.1) using a control file, I am unable to scroll to the next record using the buttons at the top of the viewer. The left and right buttons are "grayed out" along with the first and last record buttons.____Using the report designer I am able to do a print preview and scroll thru the records to the very last one.____Is this a limitation with the report viewer that I can only view one record?____Thanks____Gordy

I thought the viewer scrolled pages of output not records unless you have one record per page.__

Jim____You are correct.... I have one record (with alot of detail) per page. I am doing a page break after each record and I would think that I should be about to scroll thru the records with the buttons at the top of the viewer.____It works in the designer, but not in the viewer. Any suggestions?____Gordy

I agree...Perhaps K. Fleming can comment on this.__

Try executing the viewer from Explorer and then manually select the report.__If that works, then the problem must be a setting in your control file. __Check that you did not set an unwanted page range or query/scope condition.____Kathleen__R&R Support

Running Report Viewer via Windows Explorer gives me access to the buttons and works great.____I have removed every setting in my control file except for....____RI_ID = 1__RI_REPORT = manifest.rsw__RI_PRINTER = ?____I do need more settings other than those 3 but just for testing I have removed the others.____No Scope, No Query, No Page ranges.... Nothing. I have stripped my report down to the bare minimum just to find the problem.____Gordy____

I found the problem.....____When I changed____RI_REPORT = manifest.rsw____To____RI_REPORT = C: estmanifest.rsw____It works fine with a path to the report.____Gordy
