Brad,
Did you know that you can run The R:edoubtable R:BASE 2000 (ver 6.5++) for
DOS and The Glorious R:BASE 2000 (ver 6.5++) for Windows at the same time?
01. Design your cool labels using the windows version of R:BASE and then
take advantage of your Intermec C4 printer and windows printer driver.
02. Create a separate icon with all properties to execute and run labels
without user interference. Fully automated ...
Enjoy the Power and Multi-Platform Compatibility of R:BASE!
Very Best Regards,
Razzak.
