Hi

This is the correct command. The error message implies some other error internal to the report. Try running the report interactively first to see if you get the same error.

A couple of hints:
- if you convert the file to a ".rep" format using rwcon60 it runs slightly faster (rwrun60 module=report.rep userid=...) - always specify PARAMFORM=NO RUNDEBUG=NO for extra performance

Good luck
