I haven't printed a report with MDI option until now. They want to print
a report of today's schedule and have it sitting on their task bar all day.
So I did a simple:
PRINT deliveryschedule WHERE.... OPTION SCREEN MDI | WINDOW_STATE
MINIMIZED | PREVIEW_CAPTION .....
Turns out it's behaving strangely. Sometimes closing that report will
cause RBase to lock up, or closing the report blows them out of RBase
altogether. Other times they can open and re-minimize without a problem. It
happened
to me once while I was testing it while developing, but I blew it off
because it didn't happen again.
So I'm looking for an alternative. I tried printing to a PDF file with
open_on. They can then minimize and go on their way within RBase. But if they
run the menu option again it does not create a new PDF file if it is
already open on their desktop. I don't want to change the name of the PDF file
each time because then they'd have tons of them sitting around.
Anyone have suggestions?
