Morning everyone,
We have a routine that is using the get_printer calctable function and returning unusual results.
Even a 1 line table is returning values of 55007.6200:@fm:2073.0330
As you can see, with a page size of 9 or 10, everytime we print a new table it starts on a new page. 1 page reports are printing over 4 and 5 pages.
We have numerous other routines that use the same functionality and produce correct results.
Anyone have any ideas why calctable would return such results?
TIA

Naturally, as soon as I posted the question, I identified the cause.
It seems that the call to Set_Printer("CALCTABLE", table)
did not contain a parameter for the table header.
Changing to Set_Printer("CALCTABLE", '':@fm:table)prints perfectly.
Strange that it has only come up in the last couple of weeks and prior to that it was working fine. Also strange that on at least one machine with the same code it was still working fine.
Found another routine using almost identical code for this process, was working fine except for one table that was being sent to the next page. Interestingly enough, practically the same value was being returned from calctable in both routines.
Further investigaion will be needed to determine what was the difference between the tables that worked and the one that didn't.
