What value should be returned with the (CVAL('PRN_status')) function?
Is this only for the current default printer? What if it's a
network printer?
What I need is to be able to check the status of a selected printer
to make sure
it's available before I print a report to it.
I tried this:
set var VPRN_STATUS = (CVAL('PRN_status'))
R>show var vprn%
Variable = Value Type
------------------ ------------------------------ -------
VPRN_STATUS = -0- TEXT
Other PRN_????? Options return various values.
Thank you for any assistance.
Mike,
Here are my findings ....
Using the last public update of R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 (64), soon to be written in
the history of R:BASE, the values of (CVAL('PRN_STATUS')) is returned as NULL.
However, using the latest version of R:BASE X Enterprise, Build: 10.0.1.20706,
the correct value for my default CURRENTPRINTER of R:BASE session is returned
as "Ready".
Hope that helps!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak
