I do not use PATH, I give full qualified filename (I have no idea where the user may place the reports). It's stored in a table. (I love meta data)

how to reproduce:
create a new project
add a procdure:

SET REPORTBEHAVIOR 90
CREATE CURSOR cur1 (c1 c(10))
INSERT INTO cur1 VALUES ('1') 
INSERT INTO cur1 VALUES ('2') 
INSERT INTO cur1 VALUES ('3') 

MODIFY REPORT your_report_on_your_path

create the report an location, add simple a single field c1 in detail
compile the to exe
run exe from windows explore
rightclick the report, choose preview

try to run the exe out of ide to see the difference

can you confirm that it will not show a preview?

Agnes
