Hi all,
I'm trying to automate report production and am running into a strange problem; I can publish the report manually via the GUI without a problem, however, when I try in the arcpy window it gives me this runtime error. I've tried numerous permutations, with different data sets, and on different machines, but keep getting the same error.

Code:
>>> arcpy.mapping.ExportReport('zipcodes', "C:\Temp\fad.rlf", "C:\Temp\fad.pdf")
Runtime error
