When I print a report, i get the line number from an option button rather than the label.
Any ideas?

thanks!

Hi Rob,

What you see on the report depends on the data field expression, of course

If you're printing data from a stack, using the qrtReports_PrintReportForStack command, you would use an expression of the form:

Code: Select all

the label of button "MyOptionButton"

If you're printing data from a database cursor, using the qrtReports_PrintReportForStack command, and the database column is an index number, the first solution that comes to mind, is storing the text of the option button into a global variable "gMyOptions", passing this variable as the fourth parameter

Code: Select all

qrtReports_PrintReportForCursor theLayoutFile, theCursorId, thePreviewFlag, "gMyOptions"

and then use an expression of the form:

Code: Select all

line theLineNumber of gMyOptions

If this doesn't do the trick, don't hesitate to elaborate and post extra questions!
