Hi Jeff, I think the suggestion you have in the first thread would be a huge help to many people in testing our reporting application.
In terms of the second issue, what would cause API error 40 or 112? Is it simply the number of rows returned in the report or are there parameters of the DefinedReportJob that are inspected to determine if the size of a report is too big?
