I had the original VFP 9 on a machine. I never installed SP1. I installed SP2 and tried to use Run-time Extensions on a report that was created in VFP8. The notebook is running XP SP2.

I followed Bo Durban's example in the paper from SW Fox 2008.

LPARAMETERS toFX, toListener, tcMethodToken,;
   tP1, tP2, tP3, tP4, tP5, tP6,;
   tP7, tP8, tP9, tP10, tP11, tP12
LOCAL lnRed, lnGreen
DO CASE
CASE tcMethodToken = "EVALUATECONTENTS"
	
	lnRed = 43
	lnGreen = 100
	tp2.penred = lnred
	tp2.pengreen = lnGreen
	tp2.reload = .T.
ENDCASE

I set REPORTBEHAVIOR 90 and Execute When to "Render" (I am trying to change the colors of a rectangle). I have dropped WAIT WINDOWs, MESSAGEBOXs and STRTOFILEs () in the code to see what is happening. Sometimes they fire and some times they don't. I have never succeeded in getting the rectangle to change color.

Any thoughts?
