Andrew,
I'll give you some more information to clarify the problem. The object "gstr_diag" is
a global structure where I temporarily hold what the user selects in a dialog box that
opens before the report window opens. For example, if the user selects the "MTD Rank
Report" from the menu, then the following menu script runs:
// open dialog box
gstr_diag.datawindow = "dw_rank_mtd"
open( w_months_dialog ) // this dialog box lets them select a date etc.
if message.doubleparm = 1 then
// user pressed ok
// open window
Message.StringParm = "w_rank"
of_SendMessage("pfc_Open")
else
// user pressed cancel
// close dialog box
close( w_months_dialog )
end if
The "dw_1.DataObject = gstr_diag.datawindow" line in the open script of the generic
report window works whether the sort code is there or not. However when the line is
there, the sort dialog box will not open from the menu, if I remark that line out,
then the sort dialog box will open from the menu.
Any ideas as to why?

What is look like gstr_diag.datawindow ? Is it a list of your report contain
description with an object id. If that so then you have to describe like
this
assume that gstr_diag is your datawindow, inside datawindow there's a
column, is it right ? that column for example like id, description. You show
it to user just description only.
// get id object from a list
dw_1.DataObject = gstr_diag.getitemstring(gstr_diag.GetRow(),'id')
