Reports without headings (AREV Specific)

A client of ours has a strange problem when printing reports from Arev 3.12. For some reason the headings, including column headings don't print. Running any TCL report to screen is fine but printing the same report to disk or printer results in no heading, just the body - any ideas please?
TIA Don

Perhaps the printer configuration is such that the headings are "printing" beyond the printable area. Check page margins, etc.
To test if this is possibly the area you need to investigate, try directing output to a file using PDISK. Do the headings appear there?

Check the dictionary of the file for a record called "@LPTR" and see if it is a "G" item with "COL-HDR-SUPP" in the body somewhere.
Just a thought….

Thanks Jim,
I'll have a look at that, although it seemed to be happening on all tables, there's no 'Master' setting is there?

Thanks Victor,
printing to disk, using Pdisk gives the same result ie no headings

There is a special RBASIC variable called @HFACTIVE. Here is what the RBASIC manual says about it.
Toggle for activating or deactivating the current R/BASIC HEADING, FOOTING, and paging logic. If true, the current heading and footing are in effect, and page logic is on. If false, on heading, footing, or page logic is in effect. Heading and footing text is established using the R/BASIC HEADING and FOOTING commands.
I tested it, put a @HFACTIVE=0 after my HEADING statement. I got no heading no footing and no page logic. Maybe this is what causing your problem.
