That would make sense to me. Without the 90 behavior, it's not using the ReportListener to run the report, thus the feature doesn't work. With the 90 setting, the default behavior of VFP 9 SP2 is to use the fxListener class (or a subclass) to run reports, thus, the feature works. FWIW .. the same is true of the new "Advanced" features in VFP 9 SP2.
