Multiple Reports in a single focexec
When placing multiple reports in a Focexec with each report having different styles, the style sheets associated with the reports gets messed up. How can this be avoided?

Thanks

Mickey, If you are using release 5.2.x make sure "SET HTMLCSS=ON" is in each report. This ensures WF is using internall CSS for each report. The CSS style blocks are placed in-line immediately preceeding each report. This helps, but doesn't always correct the problem. Sometimes global styling will interfere and add styling where it shouldn't be. WF tries to override the browser's CSS inheritence rules as best it can.

The best solution is to use IFRAMES. Each IFRAME can have it's own URL source (focus report) which gaurantees styling will not overlap. You can also turn the frameborder off to give the appearance of a single HTML page. The Resource Layout Painter does an exceptional job handling this in the upcoming release 5.2.3. Hope this helps.
