Hello again.  

Has anyone tried to use the "report" command on page 162 language refernce?

report ([CPU];""} is supposed to allow the user to generate their own
report in runtime just like the quickreport at the user level.  When I
tried to implement this command, all I got was the dialog box to open a
file.  So I created a report using quickreport and saved it.  And then
ran my custom report procedure again, and it doesn't even show the saved
quickreport file that I had just made.  
Unless someone can prove otherwise, I think that this command doesn't do
what anything...let alone what it is supposed to!
Does anyone know what I can do to get it working?  Or should I just give it up?

Again, all help will and always is greatly appreciated!  

Sincerly,
DAVE
