Using form's dataset

edited January 2002 in General
Can I use the datasets that are on the form for editing data for my Reports
safely? I can't remember where I read that it is not safe to do so. Why ?
I'm using TIBDataSet and TIBQuery, linked with dbAware components. I'd like
to simply use these query to build the report.

    You can safely create reports based off of queries on a form. If the report
    is not printing, then you should be able to update the data. If the report
    is generating, then you'll invalidate the bookmarks that the report's
    datapipeline has, in order to correctly traverse through the data to print a
    report.
