Modufy Report Command 1

[tom10]

I an creating an executable and want to use "Modify Report"
to enable user editing of reports.
The command executes and the report layout is shown but the
report controls toolbar is not shown.

I have experimented with sysmenu to include toolbars but whilst the option is shown on the menu it is disabled.

What I am missing

Thanks in advance

HI

1. Select VIEW->ToolBard-> and select all the tool bars relevant selected.
2. Now minimise the VFP
3. Using explorer, reach the FoxUser.DBF and FoxUser.FPT files relevant (This could be in your VFP directory or in your default directory) and change the file attributes to Read only.
4. Close down your VFP.
5. Now copy this FoxUser.* to where ever you want and include this in your project. Ideal way is to rename this to myFoxUser.* and add the code in your main.prg..
SET RESOURCES TO myFoxUser
5. Now you must be thru...

HOpe this helps ramani :-9

HI
After step 1 in above... do the following...

Step 1.1. Open the report designer. Go to View/Toolbars and manually open the two main report designer toolbars (Report Designer and Report Controls). Move these to a suitable location on the screen. If you wish, you can also open the Layout and Color Palette toolbars at this point, but this is not essential as the user will be able to open these from the Report Designer toolbar.

In step 5, you can also copy the Read attributed FoxUser.* in the applications directory.

Hope this clarifies in more detail.
