>Cetin's response is a good way to do it. Here is the method code that I use to accomplish report preview. The special thing I do is shut off the closing of the VFP app (top right X) as my users who were not very mouse proficient were closing the VFP app reather than the preview window. So while the preview is open the VFP app ControlBox is not shown. Once the user closes the preview then the VFP app ControlBox returns.

Thanks to you and Cetin. However - Is very no way to directly manipulate the report screen? That would
seem to me much more elegant!
