Hi Larry,

Aparently there's a bit more to reports than meets the eye.

As Sylvain mentioned, from a report you have access to all the local variables of the entity that called it.

You can also refer to the report's dataenvironment object by using the report's name. i.e. MyReportName.tag. I haven't tried calling de methods from report variables, but I don't see why it couldn't be done.

I've been doing some very neat things with this, such as having standalone reports to which I can pass parameters (as local variables).

I think there's a lot of potential there...

I wanted to find out if I could add properties to the wrapper class and use them in the report for header/summary stuff. It worked!! I was able to use AddProperty in the wrapper class and display this on the report using THIS.MyNewProperty. I guess reports are different than PRGs.
