OK. I got it working. Perhaps this might be of help to someone else in the
future.
My list box is an array based list box which is being populated at print time.
The listbox on load form event uses LISTBOX INSERT COLUMN and a few object
commands to build the listbox with previously populated arrays. I got it to
work with the following…
PRINT SETTINGS
$printed:=0
If (ok=1)
OPEN PRINTING JOB
If (ok=1)
FORM
LOAD([_Constants];"HouseCallsFirstNames.Print")
Repeat
$end:=Print
object(*;"HCFirstNameReport")
If (Not($end))
LISTBOX GET
PRINT INFORMATION(*;"HCFirstNameReport";lk last printed row number;$printed)
If ($printed=42)
PAGE
BREAK
End if
End if
Until ($end)
End if
CLOSE PRINTING JOB
End if
Note that for this to work the loading of the listbox has to be in the listbox
on load event, not the forms on load event.
