Help says:


  Print Statement [Runtime]

Outputs the specified strings or numeric expressions to a dialog or to a
file.


    Syntax:

Print [#FileName,] Expression1[{;|,} [Spc(Number As Integer);] [Tab(pos
As Integer);] [Expression2[...]]


But I don't know if that helps.

The question is if we want to backport that (missing) function to AOO41X?
