The information in this article applies to:
To allow the user to interrupt generating a report, place a user-defined function (UDF) as a field object in the Detail band of the report.
For example, if you want to create a UDF to interrupt a report, place a field named STOP() on the Detail line of the report. Then create the following program named STOP.PRG in the same directory as your report:
** STOP.PRG
SET TALK OFF
IF CHRSAW()
WAIT CLEAR
IF LASTKEY()=13
SET TYPEAHEAD to 0
DEFINE WINDOW stopit FROM 10,10 TO 14,60 DOUBLE
ACTIVATE WINDOW stopit
x=0
@ 1,5 SAY "Stop printing report" GET x ;
PICTURE "@*H Yes ; No"
READ
IF x=1
GO BOTTOM
ENDIF
ENDIF
DEACTIVATE WINDOW stopit
ENDIF
SET TALK ON
SET TYPEAHEAD TO 20
RETURN ""
NOTE: SET TYPEAHEAD prevents FoxPro from referring to the ENTER key
already in the keyboard buffer (the print action calls the Print
dialog box with the PROMPT command).
The first time you run the code, you must press the ESC key to cancel printing. The second time, and every time therefter, if you press ENTER when the report is in process, a dialog box prompts you for the appropriate action.
