When a Quick Report is built or saved in an offscreen area and sent to a printer with the QR RUN command, the printer dialog window will be displayed. This can be an undesirable outcome in certain situations. For example, when the developer programatically specifies a certain printer for printing reports or the QR RUN command is executed on the server.

This is the code snippet for such a call:

`this method has Execute on Server property checked on. `QR_Area is the offscreen area `$docContent is a blob variable which contains our quick report `$tableNumber is a longint containing the table number where the QR will be applied QR SET REPORT TABLE(QR_Area;$tableNumber) QR BLOB TO REPORT(QR_Area;$docContent) QR DESTINATION(QR_Area;qr printer) QR RUN(QR_Area) QR DELETE OFFSCREEN AREA(QR_Area)

Displaying the printer dialog window can be avoded by calling the QR SET DOCUMENT PROPERTY command right befere the QR RUN call.

The code is as follows.

QR SET REPORT TABLE(QR_Area;$tableNumber) QR BLOB TO REPORT(QR_Area;$docContent) QR DESTINATION(QR_Area;qr printer) QR SET DOCUMENT PROPERTY(QR_Area;1;0) QR RUN(QR_Area) QR DELETE OFFSCREEN AREA(QR_Area)

In this way the quick report will be sent to the printer without user interaction.
