They are available, however....

I have not found a way to display the report controls or designer toolbars unless I use the same "foxuser" file that was active when the tools were open.

I would love to be able to "ACTIVATE 'Report Designer'". I suppose one could find the record in Foxuser that controlled the Toolbars availability and add that record to the active foxuser file. Hmmmm. Thinking on the fly... Very small place to sit, I'll try this and post anything I find.

If someone has a better way than reinventing the wheel, please speak up.
