I have a problem using CLIPPER with IBM-PC/XT, and IBM-PC/AT. Using REPORT command with HEADING option seems to have bug. What it does is: It always print 'full FRM file name' at the place of HEADING. Is there a patch for this problem or a way to go around. Thank you in advance. e-mail address: iskim@crcc.uh.edu

You can save more than 12k of memory if you don't call any report forms, and you can probably write your own reports the way you want for less memory... Especially if you modularize the code. At the same time you can do such things as scan the keyboard at the start of each page so the user can exit gracefully, etc. Give it a try. bruce -- ========================================================================= Bruce A.
