What kind of report is it? Is it just a really simple report (with x number of fields) or does it to a count or sum anywhere? On one of my reports (on the ReportCreator page) here is what I have: Report Name: (any name you want) Server Name: (my server name) Form Name: Contract (for example) Report Format: Record Locale: (I have this blank) Report Set: this is a required field, you can put anything you want in here. Field Tab - all the fields that I want to show on the report Sorting Tab - I did not choose anything on this tab, everything is blank Statistics - I did not choose anything on this tab, everything is blank Page Setup - I did not make any changes to this tab, I just took the default settings Qualification - did not add anything to this Description - I have a description Permissions - Public Administration - whatever the defaults are (make sure it is set to Active) Close the ReportCreator form, hightlight the report you want to run and make sure these settings are set: Destination: file Override Query in Report? (depends on what you want, but I set my to No) Report Format: CSV Character Encoding: useserver. Is anything different? Are you able to run it from the user tool? Just go to the ReportSelection form and try to run it from there and see what happens.

Perhaps I am doing something wrong. I have an AR System type report. I clicked on the Report button in my browser query window, selected the report and chose destination file, format CSV. The report will preview on screen OK if I select screen as the destination. It will not let me save it to a file.

I am on ver 7.1. I have a report for the form I am using. In the Report window I selected Destination File and Report Format CSV. When I click Run a get a window to name the file. That all works up to that point. When I click Ok after naming the file I get an error: Report Error Failed To Perform Action Am I doing something wrong here?
