Bernie: Sending reports to PRINTER with SCREN has not been a problem, I have had problems only when I want to store the report to a file. I have given up trying to store reports to a file (using 6.5++), as the formatting is lost unless you use Adobe Distiller (which my clients are unwilling to get) and you pretty much restrict your form to mono spaced fonts. I have had better luck using the old PAGEMODE which basically does what you are trying to do; it does not display correctly to the screen (if you lines are over 156 characters) but it will create a text file correctly. What I do is create a text file which I then LAUNCH on WORD where I can change the orientation, margins and font size to display my reports in Landscape, compressed. If you are going to be at the conference, I will be glad to show you some pretty involved reports that I have created using PAGEMODE. Javier,
