>Thanks. It solved my half problem. The printing now is fast enough. But it is not prining the way it should. I want to print a report on 132 column paper. So I selected the paper size as US Standard Fanfold 14 7/8 x 11in. But one line of the report is getting printed in two lines though it is a 132 column printer. What else I need to do.
Reduce the height of the detail band.
Because of some problems (like the spacing between fields increasing when changing _ASCIICOLS), I personally prefer to generate a text file with "?" and "??" (other programmers prefer "@...say"). This also makes for much better previewing (modify command gives syntax coloring, so I recommend sending to notepad, a notepad replacement, or a browser. Currently I use a browser.)
