How to make a report with one output file for each record

Enrique,

Just don't forget to EXPORT, CLOSE on each record.  The CLOSE is important.

A new filename on each record - also great.  Someone else already said that.

I used this with Invoices and the PRINTER command to write a file for 
each invoice.  Works great.
