Report Builder

We are calling a Report Builder program from a 4gl window. What is the command to send to the RB engine to supress the "filter" display?
Thanks for your help!

That is controlled in the RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS value. You probably have it set to "?" which displays a dialog box allowing the user to enter a filter expression or edit the filter specified in the report definition.

If you are using the PRINTRB interface, I believe RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS is the 5th value.

Obviously it's the RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS field for the table interface.

Check out Table 3-2 of the Report Builder Deployment Guide for the 5 value values and their meanings for RB-INCLUDE-RECORDS.

We typicall use "O" for override which then allows you to specify your own filter value in the RB-FILTER parameter. This gives you dynamic filtering from the code side.

Here's the link in the dyna-web for that table:

HTH!
