SuperBase 4 v1.01 HELP! — PLEASE —
I have created a CLIENT RECORD DATABASE for my company with
SuperBase4 everthing works — EXCEPT — printing the client registry
report.
This report was created from within SuperBaseFormDesigner Report
Function. This report should place the data for 3 Client Records on a
single LetterSize sheet of paper — from within the SuperBaseFormDesigner
the TEST FUNCTION correctly prints the data for 6 client records on two
sheet of paper PERFECTLY!
However, when this report is used the printing is as follows: the
data for the first three client records prints exactly on one sheet of
LetterSize paper (just like I want) — then the data for only 1/2 of ONE
client record appears at the top of the next page and then my printer
suddenly preforms a form feed and completes the record at the top of the
next page then suddenly preforms another form feed and starts the wierdness
all over.
I have tried adjust my prefs (this machine is using AmigaDos 1.3) and
allways the same nonsense happens — I have tried setting the printer from
within SuperBase itself, again to NO avail.
I have called OXXI at their 1-900-$$$-$$$$ number to be told that I
need to write an external file that has my printer's ASCII value for form
length set to 66 — Then I ask, "I am not a programer in anyway, can you
tell me exactly how to do this?" — OXXI's briliant response was, "Sir I
am not sure what you are talking about" I repeated my question and OXXI
again says "Well I don't know what you are talking about"
ANY HELP WELL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
P.S.: I am using an OKI-DATA 192 Plus with this Computer.
