Hi Hilmar,

Using PROMPT option how would you save user's selection to apply them for the COPY? It looks like PROMPT option only does it somehow internally for the current report it was used for.

The SYS(1037) seems to be an analogue for the PROMPT except that I don't see a way to figure out, if this dialog was cancelled.
