Progress Report Builder question

Below is the code to run a RB Report and passing parameters to that report from within Progress code. Don't know enough about VB to know what to replace the RUN command with, but this should give you a good starting spot.

RUN n:\progress\gui\aderb\_prntrb2(
TRIM(RB-REPORT-LIBRARY), /* RB-REPORT-LIBRARY */
TRIM(RB-REPORT-NAME), /* RB-REPORT-NAME */
"", /* RB-DB-CONNECTION */
"O", /* RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS */
TRIM(FILTER), /* RB-FILTER */
"", /* RB-MEMO-FILE */
"D", /* RB-PRINT-DESTINATION */
"", /* RB-PRINTER-NAME */
"", /* RB-PRINTER-PORT */
"", /* RB-OUTPUT-FILE */
0, /* RB-NUMBER-COPIES - zero */
0, /* RB-BEGIN-PAGE - zero */
0, /* RB-END-PAGE - zero */
no, /* RB-TEST-PATTERN */
"", /* RB-WINDOW-TITLE */
yes, /* RB-DISPLAY-ERRORS */
yes, /* RB-DISPLAY-STATUS */
no, /* RB-NO-WAIT */
cVars, /* RB-OTHER-PARAMETERS */
"").

Can you elaborate on this. What do you mean by clipboard?

Thanks,
Jasper

One quick and easy way would be to use the clipboard.

There's a "Report Builder Deployment Guide" manual available at teh
Progress web site that explains how to launch reports from a Progress
program. I don't know about V.B. Also check the Yahoo files section;
I
think there might be something similar to what you're looking for.

Does anybody know how I can pass a variable from Visual Basic to Report Builder? What I'm trying to do is create a little Visual Basic program that would open up Report Builder and choose a report. Then, depending on the report, the user will be prompted to enter variables that correspond to the filters of the report and give an option to print. We have so many users that go into Vantage just to print reports. I would like create a interface to report builder instead of opening Vantage. Anybody know how I could do this or where I could find such information?

Thanks,
Jasper
