Have run into a rather strange problem and was hoping someone here might have the answer. While producing a report which uses 'Header' and some print statements, the @LPTRHIGH setting seems to be ignored - no matter what value we set it to, it seems to remain fixed at 60. Anyone have an idea as to why this is happening?

As usual, the answer is that RTI doesn't use it's own variables.

If you set @environ.set to your new @lptrhigh and also set @lptrhigh, it should work.

For whatever reason, you have to set the @LPTRs before the program you are calling in order for them to set.

From TCL, I tried

EVAL @LPTRHIGH=10 ; PERFORM "LIST VOC (P)" and I got a 10 high print

After returning here and reading your msg, Aaron, and the question again, I got to thinking about the statement 'no matter what we set' etc. The important question is: where are they setting the height?

If it's in SET-LPTR or the DEFAULT in the DEFINE PRINTERS, then it's going to revert to the height set on the printer definition itself. It sounds like to me he's got a laser prnter definition and never actually got into the definition. But then again, I thought Mondale had a chance.
