One of my users alerted me to this:

I select several records in a temporary cursor, then if the user wants to print, I ask whether they want to print ALL records, or just the single record they are viewing. I issue the command:

REPORT FORM myreport NEXT 1 PREVIEW -or-
REPORT FORM myreport ALL PREVIEW

Print Preview correctly shows either one record or all records, but when the user prints (via the printer icon on the Print Preview Toolbar), they get ALL the records regardless.

This doesn't happen in the .APP, only in the compiled .EXE version, which is why I didn't notice it in my testing. I was able to work around this by skipping Print Preview and going directly to the printer:

REPORT FORM myreport NEXT 1 TO PRINTER PROMPT NOCONSOLE

but why should I have to do this?

Thanks for any suggestions,
