FIX: NOCONSOLE in REPORT FORM command causes erratic behavior (141390)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 3.0
This article was previously published under Q141390

SYMPTOMS

You experience erratic behavior when you use the NOCONSOLE parameter in the REPORT FORM command.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in FoxPro 3.0b for Windows.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem

Create and run the following program: 
   REPORT FORM C:\vfp\samples\mainsamp\reports\listcat ;
             PREVIEW NOWAIT NOCONSOLE
   REPORT FORM C:\vfp\samples\mainsamp\reports\listcust ;
             PREVIEW NOWAIT NOCONSOLE
The NOCONSOLE clause prevents the NOWAIT clause from working. The next report does not show up until the first report window is closed.

The NOCONSOLE clause in conjunction with the PREVIEW clause (with or without the NOWAIT clause) causes the preview window's control menu to be dimmed although you can still click an option and have it work.
