>>>Does anyone know of a way to give users a preview of a report for a limited time? They've got tables open that we may need to reindex, etc., and they very often go home with the report previews up on screen. Ideally, we would shut them down after 10 minutes or so. Anyone have any ideas?

>When you say start the timer, what exactly do you mean? The timer is on the form from which the users access the report designer. I dropped it in at design time. Do you mean that I should be adding it to the form programmatically? Thanks for your help, Edward.
No, I just mean that you enable the timer by setting Timer.Enabled=.T., and supposedly it will work. Maybe, you will be forced to use REPORT FORM ... NOWAIT, it should be tested.
