I have a user who is having a strange problem whereby a report listener object is not being created when calling reportoutput.app

I whipped up a quick test app as follows to try to see what was happening.

LOCAL loListener

SET REPORTBEHAVIOR 90

MESSAGEBOX("Output app: " + _reportoutput)

DO (_reportoutput) with 5, loListener

IF TYPE("loListener") = "O"
  MESSAGEBOX("It's an object")
ELSE
  MESSAGEBOX("It's NOT an object")
ENDIF

The output app is correct : c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\vfp\reportoutput.app and is in place but the loListener object isn't created.

Has anyone encountered this before? The user has full admin permissions on the machine.
