Test mode and non-GP report with a Word template

Hello,

I am trying to use the 'run report' statement in Dexterity to create a docx file. This is my first word template, but I think I have it set up and permissions/access are allowing me to see my report in runtime when I select the Template in Report Destination window and name the output file. I want to automate this, so the run report will go directly to the docx file without user interaction. Test mode doesn't seem to know about the Template, it only has "Standard" in the drop down list. Can this be done in Test Mode? Or do I have to build a chunk and try it in runtime?

I saw in the old forums that Dave Dusek posted a video years ago on how to debug, but I get "This video is unavailable" from YouTube when I try the url.

BTW - I am working in GP 2018, but the filter below does not have that as an option.

Thanks,

Emily

RE: Test mode and non-GP report with a Word template

Update - I made a chunk and got further with this in Runtime, was able to see Template in the Report Options drop down. I still want to pass in a filepath in generic format, and not open the Report Options window. Do you have any suggestions to do this with Dexterity or .net interop?
