Hi Cathy,

I've checked the logic of our Reporter application. It has a UDF called ReptRun.

In this function the private variable is declared:
abortprt = .f. && output not yet aborted

So, my report should somehow set this flag to true, if report was canceled. The only way I see is to set it to .t. in Report's Title and reset back to .f. in Summary, which seems complicated...

I'll think more about this option lately...

To retrofit 100 reports, I'd suggest you write a small program that opens the FRX file of each report and either adds a Summary band record with the correct On Exit express or finds the existing Summary Band record and modifies it. Of course, if a Summary band already has an On Exit expression, you'll have to decide how to merge the new expression with the old expression.

Use that record as your guide for doing the rest of the reports. If I remember right, Summary bands have an objtype of 9, an objcode of 8 and the On Exit expression is stored in the TAG2 field.

It doesn't return failure status in case, when user cancel printing or if report contains some errors (I'm not sure, they are trappable, and this is unfortunate). Anyway, I believe, at least in case of termination of report's printing, the status of the job should be set to "I" (incomplete).

>>>In the On Exit of the Summary Band of your report, call a UDF that has the following code:

>>>The "Printing..." window will only exist when you are printing the report. And by calling this UDF in the Summary Band, you are assured that they printed the report and didn't cancel before it got to the end. Of course, just because they let FoxPro finish processing the report doesn't mean that the printer is turned on or isn't out of paper < s >. But hey, we're only programmers ... not God!
