Hello,

This is kind of complicated, but I am trying to build a custom report module

that will allow for data entry forms and reports to be created external of

the project/application but still run from inside the application.

I have this working ok, but here is my problem. I want to call a form that

is inside the project, but the external form does not see the form inside

the project.

So from inside the project/application, I have a DBF that contains the

external custom reports. I create a menu from this list of external reports

and allow the user to select a report to run.

The code to run the external form looks something like:

External form (oApp.DataPath + 'CustomReports\' + trim(tReports.rptform))

Do form oApp.DataPath + 'CustomReports\' + trim(tReports.rptform)

This works great. The problem I am having is from inside this external form,

I want to call a generic print_preview form that is inside the project

So from inside the external form:

Do form Print_Preview with 'ReportName'

This causes an error because it can not find the form.

Is there anyway to call a form that is inside a project/application from a

form that is external to the application ?

Thanks,

Kent
