Hi Everyone,

Someone suggested I try out the new ReportListener class to solve a problem. First off, any good "basics of" ReportListener articles out there - I read one by Tamar on her EffectsListener but could use more info.

Secondly, when I was setting up my test environment to start learning, a wierd thing happened with previewing a report. The code is simple:

* simple subclass of ReportListener
STORE CREATEOBJECT("QuotesReportListener") TO loReportListener

* set the output type; 0 = print, 1 = preview
STORE 1 TO loReportListener.ListenerType

* don't use the object this test...
REPORT FORM TestRept NOCONSOLE PREVIEW

Above previews the data properly.

If I instead hook in the report listener by changing above to

REPORT FORM TestRept NOCONSOLE PREVIEW OBJECT loReportListener

I get 3 of the columns of data disappearing (out of 5). I also get a memo field in the page headers not printing completely (it should print 6 lines of memo text but ends up printing 4 lines plus 1 line with "..." in it - nice of someone to add in the ellipsis :-) but I would rather it just print.

Are there bugs in the default ReportListener class? Can't go much further if I cannot even get the report to print "as it was" let alone doing the new things.

Thanks,

Albert
