Hooking up revChangePage with revDBQueryGoToRecord
sounds like a very interesting plan to me ;-)

Jan, I'm trying to visualize this usage. revPrintBack sends revChangePage when it advances from one card to the next. So on your report layout stack you would have several cards. The report viewer field would be grouped into a background and put on each card. you would handle the revChangePage and adjust the scroll of the field with long text (or update it's text with a db result). Is this the concept you have in mind?

I have attempted to do this, and when I do "revPrintReport" from the message box, I get

Message execution error:
Error description: print: card or stack must be open to print it

However, my report layout card with the report viewer object is open and selected. What am I missing here?

I feel like the Report Printing stuff in Rev 2.0 is going to be useful eventually but it sure is a heck of a challenge figuring out how to use it!!

It sure would be nice if someone could post a demo of the Report Builder / Report View tools onto the User Contributions pages at runrev.com
