QR Newbie - How to hide QR Report?

I'm 2 days into QuickReports. So forgive me if this is a dumb question,
but... How do you hide the QR report so the user doesn't see it? All I want
the user to see when they are ready to print is a print button. The QR
report seems to be stuck on the canvas of the form in design mode. This
will look like nonsense to the user.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Don't show the form. Instead you should be calling the Preview (or
preferably PreviewModal) method of the QR component.

Frank,
If you don't want them to even preview and just print
use
qrMyReport.Print ;
This won't even bring up the report at all, and just sends
it to your default printer.

hope this helps,
dave
