printer file "name" - problem RESOLVED!!!!!

[Dennis Malen]

Ken,

I did test your suggestion that "nocodes" does not have to be defined in the 
config file. I removed it and left the processing the same. It overrides the 
defined printer in rreport and prints the report correctly to the screen.

Those of you who thought otherwise, just learned something new.

Anyone who wants to see the processing let me know.

Thanks again, Ken!
