I have a report that takes about 30 seconds to load. I wanted to have a status panel come up and let the user know all was well, but I can't get it to work.

after OPENREPORT and before STARTREPORT I added these two lines..



Set phoStatusPanel of hoReport to ghoStatusPanel
Set pbShowStatusPanel of hoReport to True
I figure there must be other things I should be doing, but I can't figure out what they might be..

[edit]

I also added the
Use VRWStatusPanel.dg
and used oVRWStatusPanel as the object identifier

Still No joy.

Michael,

Your code is correct but the loading time is divided in real opening of the report and loading data. The standard statuspanel is only shown during opening. I am working on some samples on how to do more but give it some time, cannot do all the things at the same time.

Hi Vincent,

Although this is an old thread, did you ever got to complete those examples?

TIA.

Nils,

Yes, they are part of the Discovering Visual Report Writer book and training.
