How can you get the REPORT command to page when the output is going to the screen (actually a window)? I tried coding a UDF to cause paging and put it part of FOR or WHILE expression but FOXPRO does not seem to allow UDF on the REPORT clause. What I want is to get the effect of Report Preview as provided under the report pull down during report creation/editing. I would hate to code my reports instead of using report forms. Thanks for any info. --Abdenacer (nacer@hpmcaa.mcm.hp.COM)
