An error when I use InfoView to modify scheduled instances

[vancoug]

Is anyone familiar with this error:

An error has occurred: Object reference not set to an instance of an object[b/]

In the past if I wanted to make a change to an instance of a report; i.e. change the when, database logon, filters, destination, format, etc. I could use the InfoView, click history, then click reschedule of a report that was in a recurring status, make my changes and schedule it or could modify a report that has already ran.

Now, if I try to modify scheduling detais through the InfoView I get the error:
An error has occurred: Object reference not set to an instance of an object[b/]

I now use the Central Management Console to alter distros, which is a hassle at times.

The weird thing is I could use the InfoView one day, the next I couldn’t.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks-

Hi,
In 10 years of working with BOE ( as CE before) I never tried to use InfoView ( a viewer,essentially, with a few added features) to do that kind of task..the CMC is designed for those tasks and, IMHO, should be the tool you use ( hassle or not, it will probably save you from issues like you are facing now)

Which version of BOE are you using? I know that this was an issue we found when testing 3.0. If that's the version you're on, you'll need to either install the latest fix packs or service pack or you can upgrade to 3.1.
