How to hide the Forms window for unattended execution
Posted: Sun Jun 23, 2013 11:39 am
I have a series of reports that I want to kick off via a script and save to PDF format.
The reports all have forms that ask the user for the date range of the report.
I have created an exe that loads the report and then modifies the date to the DataSources[0].Parameters collection like such:
...DataSources[0].Parameter["@startDate"].value = '5/1/2013'
The problem is that when I call report.Render(false), it still presents the Form window. Since this will be ran via Scheduled Task, I need to skip the presentation of the Form window as it hangs up the process.
Can this be done?
