Hi all,
I am using forms & reports 6i for my application.
I want to know whether there is any option available so that I can allow my users to view the reports (called from forms) but they should not be able to print them by any means. like, print button in menubar, File - >Print, and even by converting to any other formats like pdf should not be allowed.
Regards,
Rajesh R

The product is for insurance companies and some smart users are trying to cheat the management by just issuing the customers some sample schedule reports and deleting the policy from the system. Only when the customer comes for any claim, the mgmt is aware of such policy being issued. There requirement is just to allow the users only to preview the report, but they should not be allowed to take a print out.

I see ...
But, eventually, your output [b]is[/i] a paper, isn't it? So how do you plan to allow printing? I agree, if employees are unfair, it is difficult to run the business.
How about tracking actions your employees perform? You could track pressing the "Print" button (I believe every employee has its own credentials (username); a report trigger can easily store username, sysdate and report name) and deletes as well.
Doing so, management will be able to revisit suspicious actions or pick any of them randomly, just to check what happened and who did that. If employees know their actions are audited, they will be much more careful.
