I seem to recall there having been a discussion in the (bit-too-distant-i.e.-post-7.x) past about an approach to creating a set of "base template" report designs for reducing the work required to recreate standard header objects. I recall this being handled by a set of macro's way back circa 5x. However, I gotta' believe that, like most everything else we did "the old way", it can be done better in current versions of RBase.
Unfortunately, I can't find that thread. Could anyone point me to it (Date, Subject, Etc.) or re-open the discussion? Just thinking conceptually, is it possible to define a "VARIABLE" report containing those standard objects, then copy it along with those elements and assigning a driver-table to it during the copy process?
