Some people have asked me to forward to them an example. I am putting the example here for all to see. I hope it can sassist in overcoming some of the reporting hassles! This is a hand coded multiple detail report, using ABC’s print previewer. Note the Module level include – do not put it at procedural level. This reports first on Customer file, then on OtherCustomer file.

   MEMBER('roadshow.clw')                             ! This is a MEMBER
