Hey All, This is really several issues. I think the Write component I am using isn’t setup to handle printing (not print preview which does work) from outside the component. No way to send in appointed to the area in the host db.
And then there is the issue about having a classic toolbar that was created so that it made upgrading to 4D Write Pro easier (since most of use a similar tool bar)… That only works correctly in certain releases and not in the .dot releases. I think the toolbar is supposed to show up as a widget but you won’t find it unless you are in a particular R release or in v18 (I think). Anyway, I’ve presently resorted to have a button (thank you Barclay) on the form that handles a direct print to printer. Not sure if this will help anyone but it’s here for posterity. Note: yes I could alter the source code and set these things up but I intend to move the client to the pro toolbar and well there’s only so much time...
