Hello

I have a form with a list box. After selecting a record I press a button to open a specific report.
Each button represents a different report.

What I would like to do is to have the report viewer on a different form and when I press one of the buttons I want the report viewer form to show with that particular report.

I got the reports setup.
I got the form with the listbox and the buttons
I got the form with the report viewer

I know how to pen the report viewer. From a button to open only 1 specific report 1 report.
The only was I know at the moment is to have a for with a report viewer for each report(Button)

This seems inefficient.

Is there a way of using only 1 form with a report viewer for all the reports.
Again the buttons are n ot on the same form.

Any Help is appreciated

Hi HansWernerOlmDerDritte,

Please take a look at the solution for the similar issue here[^].

In the link provided above, the OP was asking about having a single report viewer for multiple reports and should select a particular report with a help of radiobutton list.

I've done the same in my previous projects and its an efficient way of handling reports instead of having multiple report viewers.

Hope this helps you out.!

Thanks you,
RelicV
