There is no way, as far as I know, to make VFP use the external report instead the built-in one. I would suggest to have a "test mode" option somewhere in the menu, or maybe in an ini file, and if that's active, VFP look first for a report named MyReport_Test instead of MyReport and run the test report instead the real one.
