I recently upgraded AREV 3.1 to AREV 3.12.  I am currently

using the PDISK command to create an output file in 3.12

and this seems to work well.  My problem now is that I

cannot print the output file from a program using the

command PCPERFORM "EXIT COPY FILENAME.OUT PRN", although

the command PC EXIT COPY FILENAME.OUT PRN works from the

command line.  I am using DOS 6.2 on a Novell network.

<QUOTE>What is the error you get, if any at all?  Try doing this..



   pcperform "copy filename.out newfile.out"  if that works then try

   pcperform "copy filename.out ] PRN"  OR

   pcperform "print filename.out ] LPT1"

<QUOTE>You should at least throw away the wordt EXIT so the statement should be :



PCPERFORM 'COPY FILE.OUT PRN'



Good luck,

<QUOTE>I know when I want to put a file to dos, and then to the printer I do the following steps: (under 3.12)



PERFORM "PDISK FILENAME.XXX"

    

    ***PRINT LOGIC HERE***



PERFORM "PDISK PRN"

PERFORM "SUSPEND EXIT TYPE FILENAME.XXX LPT1"
