Using Word isn't an option, since it won't necessarily exist on the PC where the programs are being run, and I'd have to change the font before printing it out anyway. Without that information, I don't know how many line feeds to add so that the header lines for the next page start at the top. Yes, I could add some extra line feeds to each page, but that solution is not ideal either, since I have no way of knowing what the default margins might be set for on different PC's. A usable (but not preferred) alternative would be a free text editor program that would recognize form feed characters as page breaks. However, I can only get them to print with proper paging on one PC. The information is supposed to be written down and checked, but that isn't happening, so I added code to create the files, and start a text file program (WordPad or NotePad) and have them automatically printed.

The idea behind the report files is to automatically save and print the data from the status screens of the VB programs. I haven't tried it on another WIn98SE PC, but WordPad should not have changed much, if at all, between versions of 98 & 2000. However, it doesn't print on multiple pages using WordPad on other PC's with Win98FE or Win2000. The page break does not display on screen, but when the file is printed, it comes out on multiple pages just as intended. Adding a form feed character to the file works perfectly on one of the PC's that is using these programs/files when loading them into WordPad (Win98SE). These files are being created by Visual Basic programs that I have written.
