RUN Function (Report)
Loads and executes the report that you specify.
Syntax
Report.RUN
Parameters
Report
Type: Report
After you define this variable, you can run this function or the Report.RUNMODAL function on the variable. The variable is automatically cleared after it executes this function.
Remarks
Use this function or the RUNMODAL Function (Report) if you know at design time the exact report that you want to run. Otherwise, use the REPORT.RUNMODAL Function or REPORT.RUN Function.
If the report you specify does not exist, then a compile error occurs.
Note
Internet browsers can only handle one file per request. Therefore, with the Web client, if this method is called in a repetitive statement (or loop) that generates multiple files, only the last file will be sent to the browser. Alternatively, when designing for the Web client, bundle the files in an archive file (.zip), for example, by using the methods found in codeunit 419 File Management. For more details about this design pattern, see Multi-File Download.
Example
This example requires that you create the following variables.
| Variable name | DataType | Subtype |
|---|---|---|
| CustomerRec | Record | Customer |
| SomeReport | Report | Salesperson - Sales Statistics |
CustomerRec.SETCURRENTKEY("No.");
CustomerRec.SETFILTER("Salesperson Code", 'JR|PS');
SomeReport.SETTABLEVIEW(CustomerRec);
SomeReport.RUN
