R&R + Metaframe ?

[Vince_(Guest)]

Hi!____I^m using R&R 8.1.25.0 in my company^s software.____On my PC, I can print to my local printer. ____On the Metaframe server, I have a mapping of my local printer and I can print within Wordpad for example.__But when I try to print something within R&R, I have the following message :__Cannot match printer or port in control file.____Any ideas ?____

If you use parameter file, you^ve to check if it^s send to LPT1 instead of default printer or printer share name.__Or if it^s possible to capture the port on metaframe.____With no parameter file, I^ll say you have to open the report to see the configuration that was saved inside the report (printer, number of copies...).

Thanks____The printer and ports names are stored in a record of the table S_REPORT. Their type are RI_WPTR and RI_WPORT, ie char(40).____The problem was that the names created in Metaframe are____local : HP LaserJet 8100 Series PCL6 ____printer : Client56M9C0J#HP LaserJet 8100 Series PCL6 (UPD:PCL5c)__port : CLIENT56M9C0J#HP LASERJET 8100 SERIES PCL6 (UPD:PCL5C)____If I rename my printer as "HP", all works fine.______Is it possible to change the limit of 40 for RI_WPORT and RI_WPTR ?

You can try.__I succeed to change the length for some other fields (I didn^t try those ones).

I just tried : from char(40) to char(100).____R&R has been running fine.____Thanks a lot.
