OurSpoolAdvPL

01 · OVERVIEW

Overview

The historical manual describes OurSpool loading disk reports from the MV_RELT directory. A filename can select one report; prose and parameter table conflict on requiredness while syntax marks it optional. It does not generate the report itself or prove physical printing. This example only prepares a call for an existing test report. (Sources: refs. 1–1.)

02 · SYNTAX

Syntax

Parameters

Return value

NIL according to the historical reference.

03 · PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

Commented example

#Include "Protheus.ch"

User Function Ed564()
    // Requires a test report and UI; block not invoked.
    Local bSpool := {|cFile| OurSpool(cFile)}
    ConOut(ValType(bSpool))
Return Nil

Expected result

Prints B; opens or sends no report. Under review: editorial example neither compiled nor run in Protheus. Check includes, release, RDD and context before testing.

BEST PRACTICES

Check report format, directory, permissions and compatible client. Separate generation, preview and print submission; do not open arbitrary external content.
