Dear debbiec

Unfortunately, if you are not having a specific problem with your report within the QR functionality, we may not be able to effectively assist you with this.

Your problem is directly related to the way the ACCPAC DOS window responds to certain settings within your Windows NT environment. QR has no options for how it runs within a Windows environment.

I tried a couple of things with my Win2000 DOS Window settings for the ACCPAC Plus icon properties, but was unable to duplicate your problem. Also, my settings may be slightly different than yours, as you may be using a different Windows version on your PC.

I tried changing the 'Buffer size' and 'Number of buffers' options in the Options tab of my ACCPAC icon properties, as well as disabling the 'Discard old duplicates' option - all to no avail. I could see that my report still ran when I Alt-Tabbed to another Windows application, so this did not help, however trying these options may give you different results, especially if the data you are reporting on resides on the Server, along with the ACCPAC programs. Both programs and data are installed locally on my Win2000 PC.

Why don't you post this issue on the PlusCommunity Discussion Forum? Maybe someone there has run into this as well. The url is: www.pluscommunity.com . If you take a few moments to Register on this forum, you will receive an email when somebody has responded to your post.

Hope this helps!

Sincerely,
