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.

              REPORT_THEORETICALS=NONE,REPORT_FEATURE_WITH_DIMENSIONS=NO,$
              PREVIOUS_RUNS=KEEP_INSTANCES

As you can see this is our code to create and save our pdfs. Is there a way to use the variable (in red) in the script to open that pdf? This is exactly what I need.

So it would run part, create and save report, and then open the report it just created.
