This message has been marked as a message which has helped to the initial question of the thread.
>>>From VFP9 Help:
>>>
>>>Maximum # of pages in a report at run time: 65534
>>>In object-assisted preview, limited by available GDI+ resources
>>>
>>>On my system, REPORTBEHAVIOR 90 object-assisted preview seems to crap out consistently at (exactly, or very close to) 5,000 pages with an error message about GDI resources exhaustion.
>>>
>>>Has anyone else hit this limit, and at what #pages?
>>
>>Not related to your problem, but I found that even if I use report form myReport range 1,2 it still seems to try to run the report for the whole file... And it doesn't immediatelly react on pressing Cancel button in the Printing dialog.

>but VFP9 SP1 complains about "unrecognized keyword in command". Maybe this extension is REPORTBEHAVIOR 80-specific but even so I don't think a REPORT PREVIEW GDI command would compile. I think we need more documentation on what has changed (if anything) and how to use this.

The SP1 generates the error you got. VFP9RTM blows up. That's all difference.
