Albert:
Was this in DOS or in Windows? The reason I ask is that I
thought that the LPT1 part would be ignored in Windows, that
it goes to the current printer no matter what you say.
OUTPUT tempfile.txt
SET LINES 0
LIST <tablename>
SET LINES 20
OUTPUT LPT1
TYPE tempfile.txt
NEWPAGE
OUTPUT SCREEN
Jim:
Well, yes and no. If I do a prnsetup and choose the local
printer, then nothing comes out. If I do a prnsetup and
choose a remote network printer, then it comes out. And
remember that if I choose the local printer and print an
RBase report it does work, just not if I type a file.
