Reports Deployement Problem

HI All, I am having problem in the report deployement. Please answer me, if it is an appropriate place to put this question and anybody had similar problem and solved it.
I am using Report Builder with progress 8.3D to build reports. I have some of them already built, but right now I am having problem in deploying them. I am trying to use Table interface. And trying to follow the Table Interface Quick Start Example from Progress Report Deployement Guide.
As it says:
1. I created a runtable database containing report engine table, I named it Rbreport.
2. It says Create an Ms-Windows icon with the following command on the command line:
wproserv -db dbname
But, the problem is file wproserv.* does not exist in my system, where the progress server is running. So, I can not create a valid MS Window icon. Is that file is really missing on my machine or the file name is incorrect ? If the file name is correct and only missing in my system, where can I find it.

Another problem I am having is: when I try to call report engine procedure from my program using:
RUN aderb\_prore(false,
"-db Runtable -S 'ProService for 8.3 D' -H P98 -N TCP -rbdel").

my question is: whether parameter 'S' stands for server name or service name? if it is a service name where I can find service name?


In my test program I have written:
/*
rbstart1.p

Running Report Engine from an application - TABLE INTERFACE.

Displaying a report as saved by Report Builder.

You must be connected to the Runtable database in multi-user mode before
running this procedure.
*/

DO TRANSACTION:

CREATE RBREPORT.

ASSIGN
RBREPORT.RB-REPORT-LIBRARY = "c:\dlc\src\Reports\CALOIL_REPORTS.prl"

RBREPORT.RB-REPORT-NAME = "open_order_by_carrier_rpt"

RBREPORT.RB-PRINT-DESTINATION = "D"
RBREPORT.RB-DISPLAY-STATUS = yes
RBREPORT.RB-DISPLAY-ERRORS = yes.

RELEASE RBREPORT.

END.

RUN aderb\_prore(false,
"-db Runtable -S 'ProService for 8.3 D' -H P98 -N TCP -rbdel").

But, when I run this program, it ends with error message:
" Report Builder has detected that the sql engine has shut down due to database error. Please save your report, exit and resart report builder".

Please, if any one figure out my problem, help me figure out. I am very new in progress.
Thanks a lot.
