You need to place it
inside the report and ask it
after the report.
IOW:
Add a extra, outer, group to your report (one can use a summary but this fails with multicolum reports)
Group on .F. (this will make a single large group around your report)
In
Group Footers on
Exit expression place the
_VFP.SetVar('llPrinted', SYS(2040)="2") code.
After the report you may query
llPrintedFYI:
Exit expression can not hold a statement, only expressions (hence the name), thats why we use
_VFP.SetVar('llPrinted', SYS(2040)="2") instead of
llPrinted = SYS(2040)="2". _VFP.SetVar() returns allways .NULL. so there is no harm to the report.
Update:
it is placed on group footer's on exit, because this is somthing that is printed on reports end. If the user cancels printig via ESC, the report will not be "printed"
