D Dman Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 15, 2012 #1 I've been studying on these and can see the concept of reporting using html and a webview. I would like to be able to replace the html reports as needed without reinstalling with a different html page. I guess what I am asking is where does the files install at on the Android? I have been all over mine and can't seem to find any installation that I have done.

D Dman Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 15, 2012 #2 Well after more studying, it looks like it is a little more complicated than what I originally thought. Is there a code that one can use within the app to copy a file to the files folder that already exists? Or maybe another way to do it? Upvote 0

Would that be the easiest thing to do? Upvote 0

I have sucessfully created an html report (Thanks NJDude) and was able to print it using the directions http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4android-getting-started-tutorials/17692-bluetooth-printing-via-spp.html#post101457. The problem is that I have the variable set wrong because it actually prints the html code and not what it looks like in the browser. I searched but couldn't find anything. I'm thinking that I have to copy the webview contents into the printing variable somehow but...... Upvote 0
