Create yourself a class based on a form

add a method to the form

.reportpreview

put the following code in the method

oPrintForm.WindowState = 2

oPrintForm.Visible = .t.

report form (thisform.reportname) preview window (oPrintForm.Name)

oPrintForm.visible = .f.

then run your reports like so

oPrintForm.reportname="userdata"

oPrintForm.reportpreview

Just instantiate oPrintForm at the start of you app.

This eliminates a couple other problems with the print preview toolbar also.
