Have actually got a test cursor working OK now - but am seeing some unusual behaviour - I initially set up the test cursor in another editor - all worked fine when I loaded it into ReportDesigner and looked at preview. When I save the rfxml file from ReportDesigner all the uppercase in the TestCursor section gets converted to lowercase ie MyFieldName becomes myfieldname etc etc. This then extends to the visual designer when trying to add fields etc. Python is case sensitive so.... Is this a problem?
