VBForm triggering report, grabbing input from 'Labor Entry'

Babette,
If it were me, assuming Vantage 6.x, I would use a BAM to do this.
Considering your background, I would create a BAM that exports to a CSV and
then calls a label to print based on the CSV.
I use this process thought Data Collection to print WIP labels automatically
at the time quantities are reported. I would think this would not be much
of a stretch for you based on your history and the value of this group in
helping. I could give you something to get you started if you were
interested in this path.
I might even be able to help with calling the report builder report from the
button, but it's been a while, and I got the answer I used from someone else
in this group.
Contact me offline if you would like more details.

Subject: [Vantage] VBForm triggering report, grabbing input from 'Labor
Entry'



When I need answers.... this is the group to ask.

We use the 'Labor Entry' screen.
I want to provide a report/label print button in [VBForm] that will call a
Report Builder report.

It must:
1) grad from the 'Labor Entry' screen the
Job, Assembly seq
2) Feed this info to RB
3) Print a label related to the job/assembly from the 'Labor Entry'

PS. I am skilled at RB and have used a bit of Progress

All suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
