Save Report As on the File menu in Print Preview in the Report painter saves the report definition (source and object) and the data in the report to a file with the extension .PSR.

You can open the file in InfoMaker from File Manager, send it to other users, and open it in InfoMaker from e-mail.

New PB.INI value

To allow you to display a list of existing .PSR files in the Open dialog in the Report painter, a new variable DefaultFileOrLib has been added to the DataWindow section of PB.INI. It has the following values:

    0 - Display only entries in the current PBLs.

    1 - Display only .PSR files in the current directory.

    2 - Display entries in the current PBL and .PSR files in the current directory.

When DefaultFileOrLib is 2, the .PBL files display when you initially open the Report painter. After you open a report stored in the current PBL, Open Files is added to the Files menu.
