Alan: I have everything working perfectly! I have only one little problem. I need to send a ??? letterquality command in order to get the correct fonts at the start of the report. I tried putting it in the first line of the string to be printed (@1, 10 say letterqualityescapecode + header) but the header on the first page does not come out letter quality. The subsequent pages do. So I send a ??? letterquality to the printer and it works perfectly except I get a page eject before the first heading.
I was wondering if there is any way to send the letter quality code to the printer and not get that first blank page. The customer is not complaining because he has always had a blank page.
