I just tried Rick's class. On my machine Demo.prg asked for the name of file, allows me to View it, etc.
On Windows NT machine it didn't work. I ran Demo program (I downloaded this program today from Rick's site) and I was tracing it. At one moment the message was "Output file was not created".
I checked Temp directory and the file _3efge.ps.pdf was there.
Here is the Demo.prg:
DO wwPDF
o=createobject("wwPDF50")
USE TT_CUST
? o.PrintReport("custlist.frx",SYS(2023) + "\custlist.pdf")
GoUrl( SYS(2023) + "\custlist.pdf" )
RETURN
Did you try my exact CreatePDF program without changes? Can you tell me, how your Adobe Acrobat is configured? I'm guessing, that it's some difference in Adobe itself. I tried to make changes according to the link in Richard message, but it didn't help.
I've just tested it on Windows 2000 machine, it didn't work again.
So, both CreatePDF and Rick's class are failing. I believe, I need to adjust Adobe Acrobat, but how?
I also think, I saw similar messages here. I probably need to search UT for them...
Adobe version is 4.05, I just checked.
We're using Novell network and VFP6, if it makes any difference.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
