[RBASE-L] - RE: Printing on multi-part

[Gunnar Ekblad]

Tellef!   1.    I love your mail it proves my deepest believes Bill Gates are responsible for a lot, being not backwards compatible is the most serious one. Think about it! Even wasting the money of a small church! 2.    I have still app’s on 2.11 but when it comes to upgrade to 6.5++ I refuse matrixprinters and go for Laser (Not to discourage you, I am only to Lazy to find out how) 3.    I will review the response to this so maybe even I can make some of dot-matrix users happy with a conversion.   I am out of order now by adding that it would heaven if windows would be going by the same rules as the rest of the world (or is it only me) by giving value to backwards compatibility!   Hope you find a solution to your forms!   I can also add in praise that R:BASE as all the backwards comptaibilty you can ask for!   Gunnar Ekblad   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of tellef Sent: den 31 januari 2003 14:50 To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Printing on multi-part     Hallelujah, a client on 3.1 wants to upgrade to RBWin!  It is a church, a small client, so they are interested in doing it for as little money as possible.   It's a simple app, but they have 4 reports that are printed on various sizes of multi-part dot matrix forms, one of which is a tiny index-card sized form.  I remember several years ago totally giving up on printing odd-size DM forms from Windows; luckily that client had the money to go to laser forms and their forms were all regular size anyway.   Did I mention this is a church?  There's no way they'll change the forms that they've been using since, well, since 'their leader' was born!  So I'm just looking for assurance that (in 6.5++) that I will be able to print to the dot matrix on these funky-sized multipart forms.     God bless!   Karen
