Print BAQ Report from Button

Yahoo Archive

Awesome! Thank you Lynn, Rob & Stephan that worked great. May I ask
for one more thing? If possible, I would like to be able to pass the
purchase order number and the pack slip number to the report. I know
how to get them into variables, but how do I then pass them to the
report?



Regards,

Linda

Rob is correct,

It can be done

The syntax is
ProcessCaller.LaunchForm(oTrans,"YourMenuID")



Create a menu id in menu maintenance this is what you
use.

The menu would be either a crystal
report or BAQ report.

Stephen

Might be possible by sticking a LaunchProcessCaller() statement (...hope
that's the right VB keyword... Replying on a Palm w/out access to
Vantage to verify syntax) within a Sub triggered by clicking on your
custom button control.

Never tried it personally so don't know if Crystal complicates it.
Pretty sure our primary programmer did something like this in one the
Receiving apps though (although it may not have been a BAQ report).

Hope that heads you in some useful direction. Be glad to dig deeper
tomorrow if you need.

Hi Group,

First, I assume you mean a MES button.

And assuming that you are on Ver 8.xx, the instructions for
programming MES buttons are in an AnswerBook on MyEpicWeb.

AnswerBook # 5213MPS, "How do you customize the main MES Menu and set
to use it instead of default?"
AnswerBook # 6539MPS, "How can I program the blank buttons or
reprogram existing ones?"

If you are having trouble finding these, email me back & I'll send
you some instructions direct.

Lynn
