Reports & Report designer
George,
In reference to:
Ed:
>>Now I can get back to trying to get the Report Control toobar active during a MODI LABEL. If I use the View menu / KEYBOARD technique, then the user is exposed to the Data Enviornment and Tabel Designer which I don't want. If I use the Resource File / Read Only technique then the Report Control toolbar will also popup right in the middle of a PRINT PREVIEW of all things.
>>
George:
>Glad to hear that you got it working. I assume that when you mention the resource file, you're referring to customizing the Report
Designer toolbar, not the Report Controls toolbar. That's very strange behavior, and I must admit that I've never encountered it, so I'm
at a loss here. This is a good example, of why I'd like to see an OOP Report Designer.<
Sorry for being so cursive but I can never tell where the line is between writting an article and not saying enough.
I was refering to KB Q138969 "Including Report Toolbars in a Distributed Application." In this article they mention two work arounds; neither of which works for me.

>>I tried the _MFI_PGSET and it worked great. Of course I needed it for a MODI LABEL and not a text file. I don't know why VFP had this one hidden.

>I don't really think that it was "hidden". It is the bar that Quick Menu creates.

>>You wouldn't happen to be a 6.0 beta tester by any chance and know if this toolbar problem has been addressed yet?
