Thread Subject: Report Generator Problem

Hi All, I have to generate a report inside a function. When I run:

report cartera;

I got the following error:

Beginning report
Error using ==> getContent at 27 Variable "inicial" does not exist in
workspace
Error using ==> getContent at 27 Variable "final" does not exist in
workspace
Error using ==> getContent at 27 Variable "compras" does not exist in
workspace
Error using ==> getContent at 27 Variable "ventas" does not exist in
workspace
    Converting report

The four variables are inside the workspace, but report can't see
somehow. Any help will be great.

Thanks,
Jaime

That's because report generator only sees variables in the
base workspace. You have to declare the variable to be
global first. However, global variables need to be
declared both inside and outside the function. So use the
following code:

evalin('base','global var_name');
global var_name
var_name = magic(4);
