Initialize Mode

Hi, I have a question for someone that knows how the initialize mode works, Which processes/dlls are executed on background when you enable this mode?
I have an external application that uses a crystal report and when I run this application for print a report I can't enable the initialize mode
"System Message 8062: This value cannot be changed while there are applications in process"

I have Dynamics SL 2011

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Joshua,

I suspect your issue is that you are attempting to set initialize mode programmatically either in a pre-process for the report or from customer SL screen or program. Your issue is that, if doing it from a report, SL has already launched ROI.EXE so it sees that as an SL process running. If you are launching it from a custom program or screen then SL is seeing that program as running.

You have not indicated why you want initialize mode enabled when running a report so I cannot comment on how you might get around this restriction.

The initialize mode flag is carried in the bpes table while a program is running. If you are using a custom front-end program, you may be able to set bpes.initmode. I have not tried that but it might work.
