Hi,

No you can't. "Scheduling" and "foreground" don't match.

Hi Nitihin,

I dont think you can run a report in foreground. The report can only be run in background or with user interaction in the foreground. I dont think there is any way to run the program in foreground without user interaction.

There has to be some action or event to trigger the program in foreground.

No you can't. You must figure out a way to have your program run in the background without dumping. What is the dump?

Hi !

In theory you could try the following:

- Installa a Windows scheduling software such as

http://www.databecker.de/pc_zeitschaltuhr.html

on a specific PC

- Try to create a frontend-schedule to start SAP_GUI

(i.e. via shortcut with USER/PWD set) and execute the

report.

That may work.

There is a 10-Day trial-download of

http://www.databecker.de/pc_zeitschaltuhr.html

so you yould just try it.

Th site is in german so you may "Google-translate" it.

Some points would be fine if that helped...
