Report Explorer: Limiting Double-click on reports

rbuser

I want to be able to allow the user in the report explorer to double-click
each report and it will go to print preview, not to the eidt screen. I would
rather them select the report and hit the edit button on the toolbar if they
want to edit. Suggestions? Thanks!

You can use the TppReportExplorer.ItemAction property to control this. The
following is from the RBuilder.hlp file....

Declaration
------------

property ItemAction: TppItemActionType;

Description
------------

This property controls what happens when the user double-clicks on a
report or selects the Open menu option with the list view selected. The
possible values are:

Value Meaning
------
ioOpenToDesign Causes the Report Explorer to display the Report
Designer when the user opens a report or
double-clicks
on a report. This option is only valid when
ItemOptions
allows design.

ioOpenToPreview Causes the Report Explorer to display the Print Preview
Window when the user opens a report or
double-clicks on
a report.

Notes: ItemAction must be set before the Report Explorer Execute method is
called. Changes made to this property after the Report Explorer form has
been displayed are ignored.
