Bob,
I ran across a similar situation recently:
1. I was using a private variable from the calling routine referenced in the report
2. I was doing a REPORT FORM .... PREVIEW
NOWAITThe variable was there for the initial preview, but because of the nowait, the calling proc had finished and the variable gone out of scope by the time the print (or zoom) had to happen.
Reooving the NOWAIT clause fixed the problem (as would have widening the scope of the variable).
I'm guessing you're doing a PREVIEW...NOWAIT. If that's the case, then it's possible that the variables have gone out of scope by the time you zoom or print.
Cheers,
Andrew

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
