Hi Philippe!

Selecting the to file option in the print dialog simply sends the report to a file in a format that's readable for the current printer. This has nothing to do with ASCII export. You could simply copy this file to the printer and it should then print just fine.

Whenever you want to print in ASCII format, you have to do that with the REPORT FORM command.
