Hi all
I have recently downloaded the latest version of XFRX (19.1) and I am trying for the first time to implement bookmarks in the previewer. I have a simple report (no groups) with a detail section which contains several lines for each account - something like this (AccountRef etc correspond to field names in the underlying table/cursor)
AccountRef AccountName AccAddress1 AccAddress2
I know that I have to use comment fields in the report designer with expressions like #UR ....... (let's call them directives) I want the bookmarks to appear as the account name, but two different AccountRefs could possibly have the same AccountName. Should I put the directive in the AccountRef comment or the AccountName comment and what exactly should the directive be?
I am thinking that the directive should be in the AccountRef field but that should display AccountName as the bookmark. Or am I barking up the wrong tree? I have tried this in the AccountRef field on the report #UR OUTLINE=AccountName but that is not working. The bookmarks pane is there but there are no bookmarks displayed. Perhaps I need more than the one directive?
Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Just as a sidenote: Martina Jindrová (the developer of XFRX) is a regular in Foxite.com. That would be the easiest way to get your answer :)
