The 's' key is to switch to a new data file and load the data in the
same window. The switch_data_file() will show a popup menu to select
which data file user wants and update the 'input_name' global variable.
But in the cmd_report(), it didn't update the data.path using the new
'input_name' and keep usng the old file. This is fairly an old bug and
I assume people don't use this feature much. :)
