All reports are broken in 7.17

[olu]

Hi Bruce all my reports have stopped working after install 7.17 it keeps coming up with the error:

The Print procedure failed to create the PDF file [.....\web\reports\$$$47114.pdf]

Hi Olu,

FWIW - check that Print Preview is set to ON on the report properties. I had the same problem (or at least the same symptom) when moving an app from 6.x to 7.12 or 7.14. It appears that both PDF Tools and NT set preview to false in the OpenReport() routine but for some reason I can only get it to work if I explicitly set it to true on the report properties. Go figure.

Hi Peter,
  Just tried that but still the same problem

Hi Olu,

are you getting the same effect in the examples? I test example 13 and 14 here and they both seem ok.
Can you tell me more about your report setup - what report templates, what PDF template and so on please...

cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,
     Yes i am getting the same problem on the examples and am just using the clarion sv pdf templates.

Doing nothing special just using the wizard to create a standard clarion report on a one table and populating the fields on the report.

But something weird happened after serveral tries today, by reinstalling nettalk seraval times and removing and re applying the template in the application it started working, but after creating a new form using the nettalk wizard it broke again. And can't get it back working. So am planning to now install nettalk on another machine that has clarion on it and have another go.
