Opening the WINDEV project corresponding to the current application in Reports & Queries Hide the details

Opening a report in Reports & Queries Hide the details

  • True if the specified report is opened in Reports & Queries,

<Report to open>: Character string
Logical name of the report to be opened in Reports & Queries. This report must be modifiable in Reports & Queries ("Modifiable in Reports and Queries" checked in the "Details" tab of the report description).
When RunReportsAndQueries is called for the first time, the report file (".WDE" file) is automatically extracted from the application's library and copied to the "Custom reports and queries" directory (defined when creating the WINDEV application setup procedure or installing the WINDEV application). This file will be used by the end users.
On subsequent calls to RunReportsAndQueries, the report to be opened will be searched for:
  • first, in the directory of "Custom reports and queries".
  • then, in the directory of "Shared reports and queries".
These directories have been defined in the setup wizard of the application.
For more details on Reports & Queries, see Distributing Reports & Queries.
