Razzak, Thanks for the reply. We use Acrobat Pro which allows one to manipulate PDF files etc. so I will just have to use that in the meantime. I will also have a look at the plugin, and await your new utility with interest.
(I am afraid that having converted my old DOS reports, which have many lines drawn on them in this case, to Windows, I won't be returning to those.) Thanks or your help. Regards.

John, You can still PRINT to a file with the APPEND option if using R:BASE for DOS, as you are used to. >I used to use this to print a number of reports to a single file within >a while statement using a cursor to step through a list . You can still print a number of reports to a single file within a WHILE statement using a CURSOR to step through a list, using do that using R:BASE for DOS (versions 3.x 4.x, 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x). >does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can do this now to end up >with a number of reports in a single PDF file ? 01.
