One of the child forms holds table info in a grid, another of the child forms needs to show the info in a report (as in preview mode??) I do not have the source code for the PB app so I don't really know how this was done - it actually looks like it's been done in a grid as I can place the cursor in each 'field'. The report is done in a two-line fashion (alternating lines of info from the table) and has the ability to allow users to 'click' on the headings to re-sort the info by that heading. I can use this code to show the report in preview mode in my form:

You can try REPORT FORM myreport PREVIEW WINDOW myform NOWAIT. It will allow app not to stop on preview window. I think, you should use cursor for reporting to prevent users from messing data in preview window and other forms. However, VFP preview functionality is limited enough, e.g. you can't place cursor on some 'field' etc. Maybe, your 'preview' will be actually one more form with appropriate cursor in grid?
