It looks like you are SETTING the Global Value vs. GETting it as in your comment.
But I don't see anything wrong with that.

You are not using the Global Value in the strings to print the report, so that is probably not part of your problem.

Was this an upgrade from version 1.x ?  Looks like syntax for version 1.x.  Version 2.0  syntax for Menu Tree is different.

Have you checked the exact spelling of the vSTItxt line?  Especially pay attention to space characters.  Have you replaced "MAIN" with actual report name, or created a report named "MAIN"?

Symptoms?  You say it does not work.  Does nothing happen?   Does it hang?  Any error message?
Is code for the button in On Element Enter?  SelectTree shows this is for Search/Update mode, are you trying this in ADD mode.  You may want to change code to allow for both Modes.

Don't mean to confuse, just throwing out a number of possibilities to look at.

Yes, but you want to use the PrintAReport() command instead. Welcome to version 2!

Hammer i thank you from the bottom of my heart, this command is great it now works, i now have this code and it WORKS!!!! YAAAA



// TO PRINT THE STATEMENT REPORT

var vSTI as INT
var vSTItxt as String
var vReport as String

var vFilename as string

VReport = "Main"      // CHANGE TO ACTUAL REPORT NAME

GlobalValue("gvStatementAccountNo", Client Number)      // GET THE ACCOUNT NUMBER
vSTI = @SelectTreeItem("Search Update Menu!Navigation!Save Record")

#include "sbasic_include.sbas"

vFilename = @PrintAReport("Main", REPORT_MODE_HTML_PREVIEW, PRINT_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE, 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1)
WriteLn(VFilename)
