We are trying to make an Icon to allow us to run Report Builder Reports
outside of Vantage using the following command line:
V:\Progress\bin\prowin32.exe V:\Vantage\db\vantage.db -p
V:\vantage\RBDT\CRJournalSumWF.p -S epic51 -H Mark4 -N TCP
This works on our Report Builder Developer's workstation (Win 98), but
not on any other workstation (all happened to be Win 2K). I don't see
how the OS could matter. On the Report Builder Developer's workstation
(without Vantage running), the filters box pops up etc. But on any
other machine, we get "Powered by Progress" splash screen, then the
dialog box from within the .p file, but nothing happens after the code
is executed. It just seems to vanish, no errors, no output, nothing
running in Task Manager!
Any ideas?
The .p file is (very crude):
DEF VAR RB-REPORT-NAME AS CHARACTER INITIAL "".
DEF VAR RB-DB-CONNECTION AS CHARACTER INITIAL "".
DEF VAR RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS AS CHARACTER INITIAL "?".
DEF VAR RB-FILTER AS CHARACTER INITIAL "".
