no saved reports

[pelerin]

If I create a couple of reports and save them, they appear in the drop down box as expected.
If I close PT3 and reopen it the reports arent there any more.


btw theres something weird about this forum software, the apostrophe key and cursor keys dont work.

Are you selecting the section that the report is located under? Reports saved under one section will not be viewable if looking at a different section.

I am not sure what you mean. Apostrophe's and the cursor keys work fine. It sounds like either a browser or computer issue...

ah yes, I wasn't selecting the section first. Thanks for that.

the apostrophe key and cursor keys are working now as I type this. What was happening was the cursor keys did nothing and the apostrohe key was bring up the firefox find function (like pressing F3) I had noticed this once before when posting in this forum, I'm using firefox and XP, nothing unusual.
Strange...

Hmm. It must have been a Firefox issue. The apostrophe key in Firefox is the shortcut to the 'Quick Find' menu...

If you are not using the latest version of Firefox I recommend upgrading...

latest firefox with patches.

I'm wondering though about the saved reports being organised by section. From a user's point of view it may be better to have all reports listed when no section is selected if that would be possible. I imagine once a user has created and saved the reports they want to use, they would want to be able to get to the saved reports without having to think which section it is.

I agree. That is probably a good idea to show all of the saved reports by default then when you select the report it automatically chooses the section.
