Report Pop Up

Would the following even work?

I would like the operator to review the report, insert a comment at the end and the print it to a pdf. Our process is to run a part, read a report after it prints and the program is complete, and then gage any diameters that appear to be out. We need a comment at the end of the report that states the part was gaged. Any thoughts??

I've been playing with a few things but cannot get what I want exactly.

Thanks in advance.

No pressure, but this is HOT.

  • You could look into using a two page report setup. You could keep you first page as your normal report, then on the second page include an OLE object. Load in a OLE object of a controlled form that implements an electronic signature by the operator, that says something along the lines of "I have reviewed the report and understand that by signing this I have inspected any and all dimensions that might be out of tolerance" blah blah blah blah.

    btw the 2nd section of a report object always prints last.

    Place in an object that is controlled by a variable pulled from pc-dmis that takes in an operator input and places it directly on the OLE object in the signature
    location.

    To me that is simpler.

    That is my input.
