Thank you, Claudine. It may well just be one of those "time to shut
down the computer' things. I know I can do the CTRL-ALT-DEL thing, but
I'd rather have R:Base close the module and disconnect, than trust it to
Windows, if I can.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Not a Developer Question,but need some heavy duty help
to close Report Designer
Using latest update of v 7.6 for Windows XP, I was trying to save a
report to a text file and opted for preview. When I closed the preview,
I appeared to be out of Report Designer. I ran the report to the screen
to an .rtf file and discovered that wouldn't work for me, so I went back
in and chose a regular text file and chose to open it. It opened in
Notepad. When I closed it, only >R and Database Explorer showed at the
bottom of the screen. I tried to disconnect but got an error message
:"close report/designer first". Using the Help pages I couldn't find
anything that would work. Now I can't close the database, nor could I
copy it to safeguard it, as it would not copy an open database. How can
I get the report designer to close so I can disconnect the database?
Only one cursor show up: SQL_CUR35, which I can not drop or close.
Thank you for your help.
