Can only access SequenceContext.Step

I just started a new internship and for this job I need to incorporate TestStand and Windows Forms in Visual Studios to accomplish certain goals.

 

One thing I need to be able to do is write certain test variables to the reporting functionality in TestStand. I have a subsequence in a step that allows me to edit using a windows form and that form takes a SequenceContext so that I can use that in the C# code. I am able to access the properties and methods of the Step property of my SequenceContext object, however if I tried to access anything else like .Report, I get a null error or "Object not set to a reference" error.

 

Like I said I am quite new to this program so I'm sure that more information is likely needed and I will specify whatever else will help solve the problem.

This unfortunately is not helpful. I have seen this and looked through it but here's the main issue. if this is the code:

 

Form1(SequenceContext seqCon){

this.seqCon = seqCon;

}

 

seqCon.Step

seqCon.Report

 

 

In the above code, seqCon.step is fine and I can access all of it's properties but seqCon.Report is null and crashes the program

By default, the report is not generated until the end of the sequence and only if you are running using a process model.
