Hi Charles,
Once you insert those code in the top of the DP report it fixes the problem you
had and you do not need to make any changes in WP. Initially I thought it
would be a big deal because almost all of my output at the time was producing
WP merge files, but it ended up being a very trivial problem with a simple
workaround...
Bye
Brian

Hmm. Or, the merge code can be quickly inserted by WP. Too bad it can't be
fixed in DP.
Thanks, Brian.

Hi Charles,
Its is fortunately only a very minor annoyance... From v2.6f onwards
header of WP mode file is not correct. As a workaround, insert following
Printer Control code (CtrlF7, 1, B) as very top of a WordPerfect mode merge
file
<206><0><0><206><192><00><255><0><255><192><14>

Subject: [Dataperf] Merge record problem with 2.6
Hi Everybody,
I recently converted to DP 2.6 from 2.3c after being very hesitant to do
so. (I don't like to mess with success.) I've come across what I will call a
serious nuisance.
I rely on DP to produce "DP 4.2" merge reports, which is the result of a
secondary merge report in the "WP" disk file mode. However, 2.6 does not
produce this report properly. Instead of a "NEXTRECORD" code showing up on the
first line when opening the file in WP, a pair of musical notes show up.
However, the musical notes show in the first page header of the report
definition screen in on both 2.3c and 2.6. Somehow, this code that appears the
same in both versions of DP doesn't translate into the NEXTRECORD code when
outputted from 2.6.
Also, how does one find the version on 2.6 with the splash screen gone?
Thanks.
Charlie
