Add embedded commands in Navision report

IuliaPosto

I need to send automatically a Navision 3.1 report by email , pdf format.
I use Zetadocs pdf product. I don't know how to add in the report an embedded command like %%[email:<<email address>>]
Can you help me please ??
Thanks a lot

Add somewhere in your report an extra field that you fill up with the value you need in case you print to a pdf-printer. Be also sure that if you print multiple pages, you only print the value once (=clearing the value after it has been printed once).
The field may also be of fontsize=1. But it must be large enough to contain the complete value of the string.

Thanks Kriki for your answer, but what do you mean by 'extra field'?

I have added a text box in the header of my report(Source Expression=EmailAddr), filled it with the value : EmailAddr = '%%[email:john@ccrm.com]' in the Prereport trigger and .....nothing has happened .
In the Zetadocs Document Explorer my text field looks like an ordinary text box with an ordinary value.
Have you any idea where is the mistake

Thanks a lot for your help.

extra field=the text box with the email address.
Try to put in the field :
'%%[email:john@ccrm.com]%%' or
'%%email:john@ccrm.com%%' or
'%%[to:john@ccrm.com]%%' or
'%%to:john@ccrm.com%%' or
something like this.

Thanks .

Check in the manual what exactly you have to send. Maybe on the website is also an example. I have done something like this, but with pdfmailer and it works.
@ instead of %% for example).
Remember also:to test it, you need to print to the pdf-printer, not to a normal printer or use the preview (preview uses the default printer).
