Aiko - It looks like you are referring to a report in R:BASE version 6.5. If that is correct, one option is to print it to PDF - maybe the user doesn't even really need to send it to the printer but could send it via email instead ... You could get a product like pdfFactory for your client, set up pdfFactory as printer just before printing this report. When a report prints to it, the user has the option to print to a real printer or to view or save it as a PDF document.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the conference and found it educational!

I thought I was only one in the Maryland and Dc area to work in the Rbase platform. I was about to give up on it. I am inspired by so many good people who do superb work for the clients. I should go on to discover new things with the new 7.6 version. By the way, when I got home and went to see my clients, they had list of things to complain about their system that had been give to me to support. i tried to fix and adjust the programs to tailor their needs. One thing I need to think before I jump in to do it. The client doesn't know when she run report, amount of pages she has for the particular run. she needs to know if the load is a lot and nee to run print it later so that it doesn't put everyone's job on hold. By printing how many record exists for the job on the header, that will do the trick. The total record number is printed at the end of the report in the footer frame. What is the best way to achieve this? To calculate the number of record and pass it on to the report? oror within the report designer, is there anything I can use to achieve this? Unfortunately, the preview screen (6.5 V) the report allows the user to see is limited to the first page unless I missed something to change this into scrollable preview. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Look forward to going up to PA for 7.6 training session. Thank you. Aiko Ichimura [EMAIL PROTECTED]
