There are several questions I dont know how to use this "Reports and Queries" module, for instance, let's say I have a report designed for printing my checks, but I have several bank formats, how can I have several working versions of the same report and select the one that I need depending on the bank to print.
In that case you need to name the report yourself. You cannot stick to the reports original name anymore.
sReport = "c:\sanchez\reports adn queries\bank1.rpt"
iInitReportQuery(sFile)
iPrintReport(sFile)

And also let's say one user creates a new report, how can I share the report to the other users, being that I have local installations of the program and just sharing data in a server.
WD uses a users-personal-report-map AND a common shared-among-all-users-report-map. Both are searched to find a modified report. But your right: reports get located everywhere if all users are allowed to modify them. Very likely you loose control.
And how to call that new report from the program that is not on the menu ?, Can I make somekind of selection menu on my program in order to call a specific report.
I'm saving the reports in the database and extract them on-the-fly. In fact, I instruct the users to do so, via a dedicated "WindowHandleReports" I made.
This is a very powerfull module, but I think that documentation is failing to tell us how to use it. The documentation just tells a user how to use the IDE in order to make or edit the report.
Thanks
