Remarks

This class provides a generic button to run a report directly or through the Output dialog class.

To use, drop the class on a project or form or, from the Component Gallery Item Shortcut menu, select Add to Form. When you add the class to a form, Visual FoxPro opens a builder so you can specify the cFileName and lSetCaption values. When you drop the class on a project, you can choose between adding the class or creating a subclass.

See Guidelines for Using Visual FoxPro Foundation Classes for more information on using foundation classes.
