Printing multiple records on a form

Quick question: In my purchasing dept, they are wondering about printing a
purchase order# (multiple entries/records) from within dclerk right after they
enter the record/records.
They are wondering about having filePro "remember" their previous PO# and then
ask if they want to print all the items on that PO#. We can't use "form"
because of special printing and processing needed on the output form. I made a
simple prompt for the PO#, then a system call out to dreport to run the output
process to print their particular purchase order (and assorted items).
The above method works, but, they are curious about a simpler method. I
explained that you can't be in a particular PO# and try to call out to a system
command for dreport, because that record is in use.
Has anyone ever printed purchase orders (all items/records) easily from within
dclerk, and not running into the record being in use?
Thank you for any suggestions.
