Report Writer

We've made changes to the dictionary, and recompiled everything ok, but now
reports created in report writer do not run properly ( using 5.0b ) reports
are being called from a menu item in the application. When the reports are
called it pops up a request for each of the data files needed. When all are
selected the reports run. This did not happen before. Any suggestions what
is needed to correct the problem.

Roger,

The auto-update feature in Report Writer probably didn't work
properly, if this is the first time you've seen this.  To manually
update library definitions (if you've changed your dictionary) start
your Report Writer and open the offending library - then click on File
-> Import -> Dictionary.

Tks for your reply, I did import the dic. and it said imported ok, however
when I try and run a report I still get the same error.
Any further ideas?

Roger

Hi Roger,
This can happen if you are using variables for your File Names. You
probably need to edit the TXR file manually and and make sure all the
path names are correct in both the file declaration area as well as the
Path Names section.

Regards,

Jim
