reports

Post by wlederer »

Some time ego I added reports to my project, 4 parameters to save and two buttons: "Save to SD" and "Save to USB". It seems worked OK, but periodically, when I chose another screen the strange message "Saving report Report1" appeared.
It was found, that reports were saving (without being asked) to the folder:
"\\FlashDrive\\Project\\project files\\reports", with the names like:
report 06-02-2013 14.32.47.xls.
I wrote a script and moved all of them to an USB stick. After that the storage memory used, was reduced from 22MB (26%) to 17MB (20%). All together were about 400 xls files, most of them empty, but some with real data.
The report function behaves like a virus.
Is it normal, that reports are recorded automatically to the above mentioned folder or, where is a mistake somewhere in program?

regards, Waldemar

You have an action on screen open/close that is cause the reports to be saved every time you change to that screen. You need to look for that action and remove it.

Thank You Mark,
I looked to all screens. No actions are selected for opening or closing.

I have had other customers experience the same issue as you. It has always been an action somewhere that they did not realized was there. The action could be on the button used to switch screens.
