Maybe in the report put CLS 

Open the report in design mode and click the menus

REPORTS - ACTIONS - AFTER GENERATE 

 

That may work

Subject: [RBASE-L] - [RBASE-7] Annoying Dialog Box

 

In an application which I have designed (in R:Base 7.6EE using the
5/9/08 update) for a meeting next weekend, every time that I run the Fee
Summary report, either to the printer or the screen, I keep getting this
annoying dialog box:

 

 

 

which won't go away, but the report prints properly to either the screen
or the printer. This darn thing just keeps hanging around.

 

As I said, this only occurs with the Fee Summary report. It never
appears with the other six reports in the app. All that I can figure is
because this report has a bunch of SUM(data) calculations, something
there may be causing the dialog.

 

This is the command file I use for all seven reports; only the name of
the report and the variable change, everything else remains the same.
And this is the same report printing command which I use in several
other database applications without the dialog appearing.

 

CLEAR ALL VAR
SET VAR voutput TEXT = 'Screen'
SET NULL ' '

LABEL start

CHOOSE vOutput FRO #VALUES FOR SendWhere FROM DoOutPut +
         AT 16 16 CHKBOX 1 TITLE 'Please Choose Printing Option' CAPTION
'Select Output' LINES 2 +
         FORMATTED

    IF vOutput = '[ESC]' THEN
         GOTO DONE
    ENDIF

    IF voutput = 'Screen' THEN
      PRINT Summary   ORDER BY lastname OPTION SCREEN|Window_State
maximized
    ENDIF

    IF voutput = 'Printer' THEN
      PRNSETUP
      PRINT Summary   ORDER BY lastname OPTION PRINTER
    ENDIF

LABEL done
CLEAR ALL VAR

 

How do I get rid of this darn pest? Thanks!

 

Dick
