Actuate - Unable to find .rox file when using API


When using the PROGRESS 4GL Wrapper for Actuate, when you generate a
report, if you supply the name of the report's .rox (executable) file
(as opposed to the name of the report's .rov (parameters) file),
announces that it cannot find the file, even if the file resides in
the current directory.

Here are two workarounds:

* Before generating the report, add the .rox file's full pathname
(such as c:\progwork\wraprpt.rox) to the .rov file as a parameter.
To do this, use the Actuate API routine AcReqSetValueString().
For more information on this routine, see the entry for the routine
in the Actuate Application Programming Interface Guide.

* While generating the report, after Actuate announces that it cannot
find the .rox file, the Executable File dialog box appears.
Manipulate the dialog box until the name of the .rox file appears.
Then, select the .rox file and click Open.
