Hi Joseph,

1) You can have all reports outside APP/EXE
2) You can copy report from APP/EXE as table
a) Add new PRG into project (ExtractReport.prg)

    LPARAM lcReport,lcNewFile
    LOCAL lcAlias
    lcAlias=SYS(2015)
    USE (lcReport) ALIAS (lcAlias) IN 0 AGAIN SHARE
    SELE (lcAlias)
    COPY TO (lcNewFile)
    USE

b) Calling:

   DO ExtractReport IN any.APP WITH "report.frx","c:\temp\report.frx"
   MODI REPORT ("c:\temp\report.frx")
