Report previewable not executable
Posted: Thu Sep 04, 2003 9:31 am
Report Writer, V. 9.0 xbase ____My report seems to run perfectly fine from within designer (print preview) but when I try to run it via a shortcut with rrwrun.exe (text control file) it starts to run (I get my riparam prompts and a minimized R&R logo button on my taskbar) but never comes up on screen. I^ve quadruple checked the syntax of my shortcut and my text control file. I^ve also swapped out the report name in the text control file and run other reports successfully so I^m sure it^s not the text control file that^s the problem. ____It^s an extremely simple report - just two fields, each field from a different table - the two tables are flexlinked. I thought that the executable might have problems with flexlinking so I built a different report that included flexlinking and that ran fine with rrwrun.exe and the control file. Do you have any idea what might cause my report to run fine in print preview but hang up when run with the executable? Any info would be greatly appreciated.____Thanks.
