How to pass a variable from form to report ?

[andreateh]

Is it possible to pass a variable from a form to report ?

I try declare a public variable. And then from the report access the variable. It work. But does it have other way ?

Report doesn't have a "With" clause. So you use a right way.
You can also create a special table with some of parameters and use it's values in report for conditioning.

The variable does not HAVE to be public.

As the report becomes a 'child' of the code that called it, PRIVATE variables are 'in scope' for reports.

You can also add the variables as properties to _SCREEN object with

_SCREEN.AddProperty("MyVar", MyValue)

and release them after closing the report, but I don´t see the difference. Any thought?

I think having private variables in the report's scope
will be faster, since any reference to the _screen object;
or any other object for that matter; will garner a
performance hit.

But, once again, objects are magic!

I love them...
