report data showing on form 1

[Guest_imported]

when I run a report of a form the form goes gray and the data that is supposed to show on a preview window shows on the grayed form instead...any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the idea but I guess it didn't work. I'm still getting the same result. Here's my code:

REPORT FORM f:\source\medical\reports\transactions_type_prio.frx ;
FOR (transaction_old.serv_type = INT(VAL(ALLTRIM(ThisForm.Text1.VALUE)))) NOCONSOLE PREVIEW

Any more ideas???

I think you will find that if you issue the PREVIEW command, then the preview always comes up in the current window unless you specify a different window.

Have a look at the help which suggests:

PREVIEW [[IN] WINDOW WindowName | IN SCREEN]

Hope that helps,

And the verdict is....

I'm an idiot! Yes, I do have enough self-respect to admit when I do something stupid and here is one of those times. I had commented out a very precious ";" that seems to have gotten by the debugger but of course was failing at runtime without an error. EndResult = I look like a chump. Oh well...thanks for all of your help. Have a good one!
