QUESTION
When you use VDF11.1 RDC to connect to a Crystal XI report and show the results on the screen, there is a preview window. I need to trap the moment the user closes the preview window, either by clicking the X or pressing Ctrl+F4 or using the sysmenu option "close".
ANSWER:
You can do this by creating a subclass of the cCrystalPreview class and adding Deactivating in that class. Then you need to tell the cCrystal object to create the preview window based on your class instead of the standard one. That is done by setting the phcPreviewObject property.
Class code:
Class cMyCrystalPreviewWindow Is A cCrystalPreview
Procedure Deactivating
Send Info_Box "Closing the preview window"
Forward Send Deactivating
End_Procedure // Deactivating
End_Class // cMyCrystalPreviewWindow
Object coding:
Object oCrystalOrderRpt1 is a cCrystal
Set psReportName to "Orders.rpt"
Set phcPreviewObject to U_cMyCrystalPreviewWindow
Procedure OnInitializeReport Handle hoReport
