JUSTAFTER

A JUSTAFTER is a specialized report function that allows you to stamp a value in a field, extract fields to an external file, or execute specialized report functions AFTER the report runs.  Like the JUSTDOIT, the JUSTAFTER is a non-printing element that we recommend placing in the header band.

Examples

• Stamp the system date into Confirm field on the Registration screen.  Use it to log the date confirmation letters were sent to registrants.

JUSTAFTER('=CONFIRM()')

• Export name and address information to a file on your hard drive (dBASE III format).  This is most commonly used to create a mailing address file for Mailing Houses.

JUSTAFTER('=NAMEEXP ("c:\myfile.dbf")')

• Start the Mass Email Wizard after the report runs.  This is most commonly used to email everyone in a report (e.g. receipts, confirmation, second notices, etc.).
