    QueryRun qr;
    QueryBuildDatasource QueryBuildDatasource1;
    QueryBuildRange rangeTransDate;
    Boolean ret;
    CustTable custTable;
    CustTrans custTrans;

    // 1. A QueryRun object called qr is initialized with the active query of the report,
    qr = new QueryRun(element);

    // 2. Get DAtaSource from current element query
    QueryBuildDatasource1 = element.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(CustTrans));

    // 3. A range for the customer transaction date field is added to Datasource
    rangeTransDate = QueryBuildDatasource1.addRange(fieldnum(CustTrans, transDate));

    // 4. Actusl Date Range Value is added to qr
    rangeTransDate.value(queryRange(systemdateGet() - daysBack, systemDateGet()));

    // 5. The range is locked, so the user cannot change it.
    rangeTransDate.status(RangeStatus::LOCKED);

    // 6. The transaction date range is added to the caption of the report.
    element.design().caption(strfmt("%1, %2", element.design().caption(), rangeTransDate.value()));

    // 7. At this point, the query is looped. The standard loop of the query and the printout of the
    // record is what the super() call in fetch() handles. Before the query is looped, there is a
    // check to see whether the dialogs for the query and the report are called.These are the two dialogs which are wrapped by RunBaseReportStd
    if (qr.prompt() && element.prompt())
    {
        // 8. query is looped
        while (qr.next())
        {
            // 9. Within each loop, the tables CustTable and CustTrans are initialized.
            // If no records are found, the loop breaks and the report ends.
            // If a data source has changed, a new record is found
            // and the record is printed using the send() method.
            custTable = qr.get(tableNum(CustTable));
            custTrans = qr.get(tableNum(CustTrans));

            if (!custTable)

                ret = false;
                break;
            }
            // 10. Note the second parameter in the send() method.
            // The second parameter defines the level of the record. CustTable is on the first level of the query and
            // CustTrans is on the second level. This is important since, if it is not set correctly,
            // auto sums will not be printed.
            if (qr.changed(tableNum(custTable)))
            {
                 element.send(custTable, 1);
            }
            if (qr.changed(tableNum(custTrans)))
            {
                 element.send(custTrans, 2);
            }
        }
    ret = true;
    }
    else
        ret = false;
    return ret;
}
// 11.     ------Tactics of reports---
// In the fetch example, the query of the report was looped. The case could also be looping
// a WHILE statement, SELECT statement, or a combination of both. For each record
// looped in the query, you might want to select a record from a table which is not part of
// the query, or even build a temporary table to be printed. For each record to be printed,
// all you have to do is call the send() method
